Methyl Acohol Production Alcohol from Natural Gas
- Report Summary
- Optional Analyses & Support
- Download Sample
This report presents a detailed cost analysis of methyl alcohol production from natural gas. In this process, natural gas is first converted into synthesis gas (using a conventional steam reformer or a gas heated reformer), which is further converted into methyl alcohol.
The project economic analysis provided in the report discusses a Germany-based plant and encorporates:
- Manufacturing Process

Capital Investment Details
Get a more detailed perspective on the Plant Construction Cost and understand the impact of direct construction costs and indirect construction costs.
- The analysis presents the plant construction cost divided in direct costs, indirect costs and contingency.
- Direct costs broken down into bare equipment, equipment setting, piping civil, steel, instrumentation & control, electrical, insulation, and painting.
- Indirect costs are divided in engineering & procurement, construction material, development charges & indirects, general & administrative overheads and contract fee.
Analysis depicting how the economics of the process is impacted by the plant scale. This study considers alternative capacities and present, for each scenario, the following figures:
- Plant cost, broken down into process units (ISBL), process contingency, site infrastructure (OSBL) and project contingency.
- Working capital and additional capital requirements
- Variable and fixed operating costs, as well as depreciation
- Report presenting a percentage breakdown of the investment necessary to the erection of the process unit (also known as inside battery limits, ISBL), per functional unit included in the process. Each functional unit is a significant step in the process (i.e., distillation, reaction, evaporation).
Production Cost Details
- Detailed assessment of utilities consumption, presented per utility (e.g., steam, process water, electricity.)
- Utility consumption rates per unit of product manufactured.
- Share of each utility in the total utility costs.
Economics for Another Plant Location
- This supplemental analysis provides capital and production costs related to the process examined in a selected country (e.g. the United States, China, Germany, Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Japan and Brazil.)
- It reproduces the whole economic analysis of the main report (Capital Cost, Operating Costs, Product Value and Process Economics Summary) for the selected country.
- Know the production cost for another country with the same level of detail of the main report.
Dynamic Cost Model
- A dynamic spreadsheet, having the detailed mass and process flow, capital investment details, utilities breakdown per equipment that enables to view and edit the parameters and key assumptions of the production cost process.
- Enables you to change the plant capacity and country to see the impact on process economics.
