Due to the decreasing domestic construction market since 2007, Korean construction companies are expanding overseas market. As a result, the international market share by Korea has been continuously increased and achieved 65.2 billion dollars in 2013. Despite of such visible results, profitability concerns are constantly arising. It is pointed out that the low-priced bid competition between Korean construction companies and various unpredictable risks are the most crucial factors which aggravate the profitability in the overseas projects. From this point of view, predicting the risks in advance and controling them could be the most important tasks to improve the profitability. This research proposed 202 risk factors with a hierarchy and relational database schema for power plant construction, which is based on the 24 risk classifications in previous research (Kim & Jung 2013). Proposed risk classification and relational database schema could be utilized as the basic data in risk management system.

Foreign and domestic seawater desalination plant market investigation was performed to analyze the worldwide trend of seawater desalination plant market and to establish the activation plan for seawater desalination plant application. Water demand and seawater desalination related laws and regulations were investigated and analyzed for the activation plan. RO type and large scale plants are popular nowadays however there are only small plants in island region in Korea. There will be about $1 million\;m^3/day$ deficit in 2015 according to the water demand forecasting from Ministry of Environment and Ministry of Land, Transportation, and Maritime Affairs in Korea. Therefore, it is necessary to activate the domestic application of seawater desalination plant to secure stable water resources. To activate the domestic application of seawater desalination plant, first, we need to establish regulations, support system in the water service law for seawater desalination plant. Second, related Ministry should increase the support for the operation and management of seawater desalination plant and suggest the construction of seawater desalination plant for water resources security near seaside region.

The global plant construction market has grown dramatically since 2000. As the market grows, domestic EPC contractors are expanding to meet its needs and have made great strides in terms of economic indicators from a decade ago. Larger projects involve a number of risk factors, such as volatile oil prices, however, and thus require quantitative and elaborate project management techniques for the ultimate success of a project's profitability. In addition, many Korean companies face difficulties in predicting potential risks and problems due to a lack of experience in dealing with the global market trend toward projects based on the Cost-re(Cost Reimbursable) contract as opposed to those based on the LSTK(Lumpsum Turnkey) contract. This study will examine methods and types of man-hour management according to plant project contract types. Further, it will explore the man-hour management system for successful completion of projects by satisfying the client's needs and enhancing the convenience in engineers' using the system. Additionally, this study will analyze the current system and identify its problems to address potential problems.

The most recent issue of offshore plants that produce oil and gas are the decommissioning engineering of aged or discontinued platforms. There are many platforms that are being dismantled in the United States, Europe, and areas in Southeast Asia. In particular, more than 400 old platforms in Southeast Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia) are preparing to dismantle. They are spread out across Southeast Asia with a water level of 50 meters and small-scale of less than 10,000 tons. However, this offshore plant decommissioning market is a very suitable market for small and medium-sized shipyards in Korea to enter with their established equipment and engineers. Platform decommissioning is conducted according to decommissioning procedures. However, there are some difficulties in market advances as no developed case studies or process models are established on how platform structures and components are to be dismantled and how the dismantled material is to be reused and recycled. Therefore, this study presented domestic and foreign regulations on the reuse and recycling of oil and gas producing offshore plant platforms, case analyses on developed decommissioning engineering, platform reuse and recycling guidelines, and platform and pipeline decommissioning processes and methods.

This paper presents an operational technique to maximize profit of a cogeneration power plant. To minimize errors in a loss and gain analysis of a cogeneration power plant, the energy sale profit in the cost-based-pool electric power trade market, the heat sale profit, and the supplementary fund profit for electric power industry are taken into consideration. The objective is to optimize the heat-electric power ratio to maximize profit of a cogeneration power plant. Furthermore, the constrained bidding technique to optimize heat-electric power ratiocan be obtained. Profits from of a cogeneration power plant are composed of three categories, such as the energy sale profit in the cost-based-pool electric power trade market, the heat sale profit, and the supplementary fund profit for electric power industry. Profits of a cogeneration power plant are varied enormously by the operation modes. The profits are mainly determined by the amount of constrained heat generation in each trading time. And the three profit categories arecoupled tightly via the heat-electric power ratio. The result of this case study can be used as a reference to a cogeneration power plant under the power trading system considered in this case.

From 2000, the world plant market, especially plant developing business related to oil and gas, has been increasing. Domestic construction companies advance to overseas plant construction market actively, and proportioning to this, an importance of utility construction is increasing. However, the project becomes large and high-tech, and many companies experience difficulty of project management due to relatively high risk of overseas construction. In this study, we built the standard process with which domestic company can evaluate the risk of overseas plant utility construction. Primary factors for risk evaluation is derived, classification system is made out, primary factor is analyzed, and counter plan is suggested. And thorough management of risk is performed by risk management organization that manages the risks, risk control methods, reports and monitors through risk sheet and risk action log from the start of project to the end.
