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
