Shell Engineer - Cost Estimation in Cyberjaya, Malaysia

Where you fit

The Projects Portfolio Cost Estimator scope involves the translation of Project scope into the estimate of capital and operational expenditure cost during the project phases (Identify, Assess, Select, Define and Execute). The estimates completed by the cost estimator not only cover the costs associated with the engineering, procurement, construction, implementation commissioning and start-up but also address the translation of the project risk profile into cost contingency via deterministic and probabilistic methods, the potential effect of market movements over the project timescale, and the complete suite of “Owners Costs” that Shell will experience.

What’s the role?

  • Develop conceptual (Type 1) project cost estimates to help the business determine which investment ideas warrant further definition. Assess prospect scope and main components for each concept under consideration.

  • Develop (Type 2) cost estimates to assist project team in determining which selected concept is economically viable.

Translate the identified project scope and engineering deliverables into the approved work breakdown structure for design, procurement, construction, installation, commissioning and start-up of the hardware elements. Estimate composed of detailed MTOs matched with detailed pricing and construction unit hours. Identify areas of uncertainty and apply appropriate allowances.

  • Provide assurance and challenge, as needed, on detailed project cost estimates (Type 4). Incorporate project actual costs to date and detailed MTOs from IFC (Issue For Construction) design packages matched with detailed pricing and construction unit hours to establish remaining project costs.

  • Benchmarking of Estimates- Develop benchmarking packages at appropriate level to check estimate results from top down versus both internal and external comparable data. Work with IPA forms and reports to understand comparison of Shell projects to industry datasets.

  • Connect with site field leads to understand project scope and execution.

  • Ensure all project cost estimates, submitted by engineering and construction contractors, comply with Shell Project Services Standards, Guides and Procedures.

  • Perform uncertainty analysis and sensitivities on cost estimates, reflecting analysis of project risks. Utilize appropriate deterministic or probabilistic risk assessment tools to develop the appropriate cost contingencies

  • Participate and comply with all safety programs.

  • Assist with the continuous improvement and implementation of standardized work processes for effective cost estimating.

  • Stay current with mandatory training
