Introduction Z-SSp is used to establish cost estimates and schedules for subsea developments. The program performs feasibility and compatibility checks of the technical development options under simulation. After the input phase, Z-SSp automatically generates and analyses the network plan for the project. Detailed costs of equipment and resources for the project are provided. A powerful report facility provides users with full access to all Z-SSp information.
Standard reports cover all aspects of the project.
On project initiation, Z-SSp creates a uniquely identified database in which all resulting project information is stored. A consistent project model is built up as the user is guided through each technology area, group by group, activity by activity. Throughout this input phase, Z-SSp applies immediate validation checks and provides calculated values for input defaults. Built-in schemes, component lists, etc. may be inspected by the user and updated as necessary with preferred schemes and lists. The flexibility of Z-SSp's structure provides the user with ways of developing different scenarios for a particular project.
