COST PREMISES FOR SURFACE FACILITIES
(BP11 PROGRAMME PREPARATION)

1. Objective
To provide a consistent and transparent basis for estimating the costs and phasing of oil & gas facilities for the
BP11 Programme. Document also gives quick cost information for Screening (Type 1) Capital Expenditure
(CAPEX) estimates.

2. Basis and Assumptions for Premises

2.1. Basis for the Estimation of Projects Costs and Costs Phasing
The cost data provided herein are 50/50 estimates (i.e. inclusive of contingencies) suitable for Type 1 cost
estimates, with an accuracy of +40%/-25%. Costs are in Estimate Date Money (EDM) with a reference date of
1/7/2010. They are to be used as basis for input to the SPEED Project Proposal Sheet (SPPS) for project
economics. The estimates are majorly for Onshore (land/swamp) developments, valid for the East and the West
unless specifically noted otherwise. For offshore development cost estimates, the CES should be used.
The estimates are in line with the Shell Group 2011 Capital Cost Outlook for Projects and also reflect the impact
of current security situation in the Niger Delta.
It should be noted that unless otherwise stated, the cost estimates contained herein are deemed to cover all phases
necessary for the completion of the full scope of the project as presented in the SPPS including the cost of studies,
design, project management, procurement, construction and commissioning up to project hand over and project
close-out as appropriate, with exclusions as noted in 2.2 below. Owners costs, customs duty, VAT and EPC
Premium are included in line with Group guidelines.
These costs are for the specific purpose of producing estimates for economic analysis, business planning
and portfolio analyses and reflect the current market within the oil and gas capital project industry. They
are not targets for contract negotiation nor should they be used in discussions with contractors or suppliers.
Indeed it should be the aim in awarding any new contracts, to achieve lower costs than indicated here.
Project timing is calculated from the approval of the Basis for Design to the facility on stream date (post
commissioning).

2.2. General Assumptions


The costs contained herein assume:
a) in house development of concepts up to completion of Basis for Design
b) prompt payment of contractors and timely project cashflow
c) no major scope changes as compared to previous projects.

2.3. Application
This document aims to cover the most repetitive projects; engineers can apply the figures from this document
directly in the SPPS sheet. For facilities not contained in this document, advice can be sought from the SPDC
Central Cost Estimating Team.
This document does not replace the cost estimating tools available, it only pools together high level estimates for
elements commonly encountered during selection of evaluation options, including oil & gas infrastructure and
location preparation, at Screening and Study project phases. Its purpose is to facilitate consistency and
transparency of cost estimating for the SPPS for the BP11 programme.
Projects which make the Screening criteria will need to have the facilities estimates revised to Types 2 & 3
estimates for study and budget purposes. For brownfield projects (typically from Asset Engineering) which are
normally planned and executed within one full planning cycle, it is advised that a detailed estimate (+ 10%/-5%
accuracy) be prepared for input into the SPPS.
In case an estimate prepared using one of the Shell recommended cost estimating tools is available, such estimate
should be used in the SPPS.

Costs herein are much more than contracts costs. Contact the central cost estimating team for assistance with Company estimates.
Page 4 of 17
________________________________________________________________________________
2.4. Definition of terms
Common terms encountered during the portfolio generation stage are defined as follows for clarity and
understanding.

a) CAPEX project - Capital expenditure


These are project expenditure which result in an increase in the asset base of the company, and upon completion,
need to be capitalised for tax purposes.

b) OPEX project (or EOM) - Extra-Ordinary Maintenance expenditure


These are project expenditure, which necessarily have to be incurred on a one-off basis to maintain existing
facilities. These expenditure may not be capitalised; in case of doubt, please clarify with the focal points in the
BSUs.

c) OPEX recurrent
These are recurring expenditure necessary to operate and maintain existing facilities.

d) OG - Oil and Gas Generating project


These are new Capex projects that directly increase the company's oil and gas reserves and production capacity.

e) OGI - Oil and Gas Infrastructure


These are new Capex projects that are directly necessary for the successful operation of existing or new oil and
gas generating facilities. Examples of this category include Trunk lines, oil field accommodation facilities,
Terminals, civil, process and utility projects.

f) NOGI – Non Oil and Gas Infrastructure


These are new Capex projects which have no direct relationship with oil and gas production such as welfare
projects, main office type projects, non oil field residential accommodation, etc.

g) Type 1 Estimates (Screening – DG2)


An estimate type based on scope derivation comprising a system group of hardware items i.e. flowstation,
compressor station, gas plant, etc. It is used for Screening purposes with an accuracy of +40%/-25%. It should be
used for projects that will be realised in the later years of the five year planning period.

h) Type 2 Estimates (Study – DG3)


An estimate type based on scope derivation comprising systems of hardware within a system group i.e. gas
dehydration, export pumping, etc. It is used for Study type estimates with an accuracy Level of +25%/-15%.
Therefore, when an option has been selected from the several scenarios based on project economics, the cost
estimate for the selected option should be updated to Type 2. It should be used for projects with execution
commencing later than the first year of the five year planning period.

i) Type 3 Estimates (Budget – DG4)


These are estimates developed for a given project at the end of the front-end engineering design (FEED) usually
based on equipment & materials breakdown e.g. pumps, vessels, piping, etc. It is used for budget purposes with an
accuracy of +15%/-10%. Therefore, at the end of the front end engineering design, the cost estimate for the
selected option should be updated to Type 3 for inclusion in the budget. Type 3 Estimates should be used for
projects intended to be executed in the first year of the five year planning period.

j) Type 4 Estimates (Control – Execute)


Type 4 estimates are developed in the Execute phase (detailed design and post) and are utilised for budget
revisions/changes and cost control during execution.

k) 50/50 Estimate
A cost estimate which includes all the known and predictable costs, including estimating allowances and
contingency. It has a 50% confidence level (i.e. an equal chance of the built cost of the project being exceeded or
being lower).
Costs herein are much more than contracts costs. Contact the central cost estimating team for assistance with Company estimates.
Page 5 of 17
________________________________________________________________________________
l) 90/10 Estimate
The term 90/10 estimate is the 50/50 estimate onto which an allowance has been included to allow for the risk of
overrunning this estimate (overrun allowance). The overrun allowance caters for exceptional factors, which can
affect project costs e.g. major exchange rate movements, political factors, technological innovation, etc. This
estimate has a 10% chance of final expenditure being greater than the estimate.

Figure 1: Estimating Types/Accuracy (see note on contingency in m below)

m) Contingency
Contingency is added to the base estimate to allow for incomplete project definition and specific project risks to
bring the estimate to a 50/50 level. It generally decreases over the project phases as the scope definition and
execution strategies mature.
Note that the contingency Types (40%, 28%, etc.) indicated for Types 1 to 4 estimates in above figure are
representative levels derived in SPDC using the deterministic method for assessing contingency, which takes into
account the generic risk profile of the project based on the TECOP aspects.
For general cost estimating guidelines please visit the Project Guide 03 (Capital Cost Estimating).

3. Facilities Cost Guidelines

3.1. Flowstations
The cost estimates presented are for flowstations with and without integrated associated gas (AG) booster (3.5 to
12Barg) compressor. They were derived from the CES.

Table 3.1
FACILITIES – Land Flowstation, USD Flowstation with AG Remarks
Million Booster, USD Million
30Mb/d with 5MMscf/d AG 60 85
30Mb/d with 10 MMscf/d AG 60 90
45Mb/d with 15 MMscf/d AG 70 110
Costs herein are much more than contracts costs. Contact the central cost estimating team for assistance with Company estimates.
Page 6 of 17
________________________________________________________________________________
60Mb/d with 20 MMscf/d AG 80 140
90Mb/d with 30 MMscf/d AG 100 170 Two trains as basis
120Mb/d with 40 MMscf/d AG 125 200

Costs are typically phased in a four year period as follows: 2:13:45:40. Above costs should be assumed for an
equivalent concrete barge flowstation.

3.2. Temporary Oil and Gas Production Facilities (TPF)


These costs are based on quotations received from equipment lease contractors and experience on recent similar
projects.

Table 3.2
Total Cost, USD Million
CAPEX: 22
Site Preparation/Installation
OPEX: Lease rate/mth (30MBD/10MMscf/d – suction/discharge of 1.0
3.5/12barg)
OPEX: Lease rate/mth (45MBD/10MMscf/d suction/discharge of 1.2
3.5/12barg)
These costs are for concrete barge mounted facilities and same costs should be assumed for installation on land.
For rental periods in excess of four years 50% of monthly lease rate should be applied from end of the fourth year.
Apply a single year cost phasing for the site preparation and installation.

3.3. Multiphase Pumps (MPP)


Estimates presented are based on Contractors budget quotes for different capacities. They are on the basis of gas
with a GVF of 97% (GOR 1000 scf/bbl).

Table 3.3 – Multiphase pumps (Swamp)

At least $4mln. of above costs is for site preparation/piling which can be discounted for installation on land.
Number of MPP units required is less with higher suction pressure i.e. 6 barg or reduced GOR. Please note that
electric driven pumps can be deployed as larger pump units and hence less number of pumps. There may however
not be a big cost difference from gas engine if cost of power generation is included in the consideration. Cost
phasing is 10:50:40.

3.4. Major Flowstation modifications/extensions


There are no straightforward estimates for undefined brown field activities such as capacity upgrades, extensions,
etc. It is suggested that the scope of work for brown field modifications be prepared by listing hardware items and
piping required and the scope estimated using recent similar credible contracts as basis. Where such data is
unavailable the cost estimating team should be contacted for assistance.
The under listed procurement estimates (please note these costs are ex-works Lagos except where indicated as
FOB) are derived for common equipment/hardware encountered in flowstation modification. Vessels prices
shown are based on skidded vessel with all valves and instruments.

Costs herein are much more than contracts costs. Contact the central cost estimating team for assistance with Company estimates.

For centrifugal pumps above costs for equivalent capacity should be used with a 10% mark-up.

3.5. Gas facilities:

3.5.1. Gas Processing


Installed costs presented are for single train dehydration facilities utilising TEG contactor and regeneration
system. Gas dewpointing (NGL extraction) is based on use of JT expansion. Gas arrival pressures is 120 bar and
temperature of 45 degC. Costs include for gas cooling, power generation and flare. A condensate gas ratio of 35
bbl/MMscf is the basis for condensate stabilisation. For installation in the land area, 95% of the costs should be
used. Cost has also been included for use of Twister which achieves Gas dehydration with Hydrocarbon
dewpointing.

3.5.2. Surge Vessel (SV), Low Pressure (LP) and Export Gas Compression
Installed costs presented are for 1 x 100% compression facilities, including required power generation (except for
the SV gas compression). The SV and LP Compression costs are based on use of electric drives while the HP
Compression costs are for gas turbine driven. For installation in the land area, 95% of the costs should be used.

Table 3.5.2 – Gas Compression Facilities Costs (Swamp)

Land 5 250
10 320
15 380
Swamp 5 300
10 400
15 480
Note: Above rates are based on contractors quotations for use of a 2-stage 1x100% compressor with
suction/discharge pressures of 3.5/30 barg. Minimum rental duration is three years and rental for a shorter period
will be more expensive. For 1 year rental, apply a factor of 1.4 to above rates. The rates cover the following:
a) Engineering and design
b) Transportation, installation, commissioning and hook-up
c) Contractor site camp facilities
d) Operate and maintain.
A one time CAPEX of $5 to $8 mln. depending on capacity applies. This is to cover mobilisation of facility and
necessary installation works.

3.6. Water Injection Plant


The scope covers filtration, deaeration and injection (200barg) systems including required power generation.
Typical cost phasing is 2:13:50:35.

Costs herein are much more than contracts costs. Contact the central cost estimating team for assistance with Company estimates.

3.7.2. Power Transmission by Submarine Cables/Overhead Pylons
These are installed costs and cover engineering, procurement, installation and project management.

Submarine cables Overhead Pylons Cables
33 1.6 2.8
11 1.5 2.7
6.6 1.45 2.65
The submarine cable rates are based on the cost of recent submarine cable projects and are for 4-core buried cable
with fiber optic core installed in a swamp environment. For submarine cable installation in the creek or river
discount above values by 10% and 15% respectively. Pylons costs are based on piled 26m high pylons in the
swamp.

3.8. Pipelines
The estimates include materials, installation (incl. Mob/demob), pig launchers/receivers, CP costs, etc. and are
valid for class 600# carbon steel pipelines > 8" in diameter. The offshore pipeline costs presented do not include
Shore approach downstream connection which is quite expensive.

Cost/in/km for pipelines that are 5km or less is at least 30% higher than above rates. For a 20km pipeline the rates
are approximately 20% lower. This is largely due to relatively heavy impact of mob/demob cost on the shorter
lines.
For class 900# and 1500# pipelines above cost/in/km in the chart are higher with approximately 5% and 10%
respectively for an 8” swamp pipeline. These factors are about double for equivalent land line and increase with
increasing pipeline size. Consult the cost estimating team for guidance as necessary.
Please note also that above rates include the cost of any river crossing less than 50m. Cost(s) of river
crossings wider than 50m should be estimated using Graph 3.8 below, and added to estimated costs.
Installed costs for duplex steel pipelines are higher than for carbon steel pipelines by a factor ranging between 1.8
Costs herein are much more than contracts costs. Contact the central cost estimating team for assistance with Company estimates.
Page 11 of 17
________________________________________________________________________________
and 3.2 for 8” to 40” pipelines with an almost linear increase in the factor, with pipe size. Please note that for
linepipe procurement cost alone, this factor is from 2.7 to 4. Please note however that the high volatility in the
steel market may affect the accuracy of the stated factors.
Project phasing is dependent on the size and length of the pipeline. Typical cost phasing for pipelines of L> 40km;
D> 24" is 5:15:45:35 while that for others is 10:50:40. For special circumstances such as major river crossings,
reference should be made to the CES.
Graph 3.8.2 – Cost Curve for Pipeline River Crossing

3.9. Flowlines
Total equivalent figures are derived from contracts held in the Engineering Hub benchmarked between the
Divisions and materials costs from SCM. Cost phasing is typically 20:80 mainly due to linepipe material
procurement lead time.

Table 3.9 – Cost Table for Flowlines Construction


Land locations Cost/km, USD ‘000

4” 1500# 400
6” 1500# 480
Swamp locations
2” 1500# 210
4” 1500# 430
6” 1500# 530
Note 1: Submarine flowlines and special material lines e.g. flexible pipes to be estimated using CES
Note 2: For 600# rated flowlines use 95% of above values.
Note 3: For replacement flowlines add 10% of cost to cover decommissioning of existing line.
Note 4: Add for flowline wellhead hook-up fittings, per flowline, as follows - $150k for 6”x1500# and $100k
for lower class 4” and 6” flowlines.
Please note that above costs are based on use of call-out or individual contracts placed by the SPDC Engineering
Hub Teams, purchase of linepipe via SPDC SCM and coating using existing call-out contracts. A standard design
for flowlines exists in SPDC. Execution by use of a Major Contractor is much more expensive.

3.10. Other Oil & Gas Infrastructure Projects

3.12. SCD Projects: General Guidelines


For major projects general guideline for planning purpose is 2.5% of project CAPEX. Actuals are determined with
guidance from the SCD Steering Committee.

3.13. Abandonment
General guideline is 10% of CAPEX and should be phased in the year the expenditure occurs.

3.14. Land Acquisition


Allow N2.5 mln. per hectare (1 hectare = 10,000 sq.m) – not applicable for urban areas.

4. Inflation Factors
Estimates should be prepared in Estimate Date Money (EDM 1/7/2010) as provided in this document. Where
more than one currency is involved, the estimates (phased) in each currency should be converted to MOD using
the respective country annual inflation rates. These can then be converted back to MOD in US Dollars by applying
