NeilSoft Limited

MULTI-DISCIPLINARY PLANT ENGINEERING & DOCUMENTATION SERVICES:

Neilsoft provides multi-disciplined plant engineering services including Pre-bid engineering, Extended Basic Engineering Support, Plant Digitization, Detailed Engineering and Design, and Plant Documentation services for (plant) operations and control.
Today, plant owners, operators and other stakeholders face global competition, low-cost pressures, tighter construction norms and reduced time-to-market requirements. Moreover, the dramatic shifts in contracts(LSTK) and technology-driven design, procurement, and construction of projects to improve overall efficiency and reduce a cost(s) is a focus of every organization.

Intelligence, integration and modularity are the major future (plant) trends for cost reduction and faster plant engineering. Neilsoft with its multi-disciplinary (Process, Piping, Mechanical, Civil Structural and Electrical & Instrumentation) capabilities and BIM-enabled processes provide efficient plant design & equipment engineering services to owner-operator, EPC, EPCM, OEMs and technology providers. We help companies to realize their core strategic expectations from the plant project, improve their competitiveness, minimize project risks, and help optimize project completion times, hence reducing the overall project cost.

Whether you are expanding, upgrading, revamping/scaling-up existing pants, or establishing new plants, you can rely on Neilsoft’s cost-effective plant design services & solutions to help you achieve your business objectives.

COMPREHENSIVE PLANT PIPING DESIGN & ENGINEERING SERVICE OFFERINGS

Piping engineers must handle different codes, standards and specifications for Plant Piping and Layout creation. Moreover, error-free layout creation is important for getting accurate BOMs. They also spend a lot of time doing data consistency checks and creating multiple iterations. Having a good understanding of various load cases for piping flexibility analysis and pipe rack design is also critical when they do piping design. Neilsoft piping engineers understand these challenges and provide comprehensive services for Plant Piping from design (spec. creation, sizing calculations, catalogue creations, etc.), 3D modeling (using various platforms), IFC - Construction deliverables (GA drawings & Isometrics), Piping Analysis (flexibility analysis) and extracting intelligent reports (pipeline list, MTO’s, etc.). Our team of experts have experience across industries such as Oil & Gas, Chemicals & allied industries, Pharmaceutical, Food & Beverages and Utilities such as Water & Effluent Treatment, Renewal Energy and Power.

CREATING AN ENTERPRISE-LEVEL PROCESS KNOWLEDGE REPOSITORY AND REUSABILITY
The key challenges faced by owner-operator and consultants are to create accurate specifications, the creation of multiple options (for process design), selection of optimum Equipment, accurate estimation, re-work, reusability of drawings/specs, design review process and accuracy of reports. Engineers spend a lot of time in creating drawings and generating CAD outputs instead of focusing on their core (engineering/design) activities. Neilsoft assists an organization in creating such CAD outputs using intelligent tools. It helps companies to create a knowledge repository and create (process) design options based on the inputs from the customers. We help in sizing of utilities based on preliminary inputs along with using various latest tools. We deliver the intelligent outputs (deliverables) and assist its clients in the management of the change across the project life-cycle. Whether it is converting legacy data into digital & intelligent formats or updating existing assets as per operating condition (for e.g. uniformity in Tagging standards), or assistance in creating design options for design review; Neilsoft work as an extended arm of our client’s engineering team and provides flexibility and scalability for faster turnaround of designs.
