Early stage & conceptual estimating: tank terminal industry

Duration: 50 minutes

Watch the webinar to discover how Conceptual Estimating can improve the performance of Tank Terminals.

About the webinar
Tank Terminals provide connections between the key links in the chains –production, refining, and distribution – and serve as a repository for surplus and buffer inventory. Even though Tank Terminals can profit greatly from storing products, most terminal operators are not project focused.

This means that the Tank Terminal industry can gain more from their product storage – especially starting from the cost estimation to create a solid basis for the whole project.

During this webinar you’ll learn how conceptual estimating and one central cost database can help improve the performance of Tank Terminals, and share information efficiently between systems and people.

In this webinar we discuss:

• The vibe and projects within the Tank Terminal Industry
• The challenges for Tank Terminal operators
• The importance of focusing on Conceptual Estimating
• An intro to the implications of the software system Cleopatra Enterprise and how it can help this industry
