Plant Cost Estimation 1975 to Present
Plant Cost Estimation 1975 to Present
(OP)
Does anyone have a "rule-of-thumb" plant cost estimator for estimating refinery construction cost from 1975 to present? I realize that there are commercial versions of this, but I don't have a subscription to those versions. Perry's (my version) gives data from 1980 (=100) to 1993, but no later (and it doesn't go to 1975). Any direction to public domain or free data is appreciated.
