Hello good morning to my fellow planners.

I am in a predicament of estimating manufacturing durations which I have to incorporate to my Master Schedule

Most of them are Mechanical Equipments. Strippers, Vessels, Heat Exchangers, Tanks, Filters, In-Line Mixers, Pumps and Compressors. I am hoping that the more senior and experienced planners of our group can help me on this predicament.

Actually I am a new planner for a Petro-chem company so estimating for these equipments are very new to me.

 

Thank you in advance.
