One of the most common applications of 3D laser scanning and modeling services in the oil and gas industry is plant and asset management. Oil and gas plants often have complex equipment layouts that require frequent maintenance and inspection. 3D laser scanning technology can be used to capture precise measurements of equipment, pipes, and structures, allowing for the creation of a detailed 3D model of the plant or asset. This model can be used to identify potential issues before they occur, improve plant efficiency, and reduce maintenance costs.

Another application of 3D laser scanning and modeling services in the oil and gas industry is facility layout and design. Oil and gas facilities are often located in remote and harsh environments, which can make traditional surveying and design methods challenging. 3D laser scanning technology can be used to capture accurate measurements of the existing environment, allowing for the creation of a 3D model that can be used to design new facilities or modify existing ones. This process can significantly reduce design time and cost, as well as improve project efficiency and accuracy.

In addition to plant and asset management and facility layout and design, 3D laser scanning and modeling services can also be used for maintenance and inspection purposes. The technology can be used to capture accurate measurements of equipment and structures, allowing for the detection of potential issues before they become major problems. This can help reduce downtime and maintenance costs, as well as improve worker safety.

Overall, 3D laser scanning to 3D modeling services have become a valuable tool in the oil and gas industry, providing accurate measurements, time-saving benefits, and cost-effective solutions for plant and asset management, facility layout and design, and maintenance and inspection purposes.

We offer a wide range of 3D CAD models customized to meet your unique specifications and available in various formats and levels of detail. Our team of highly skilled technicians is proficient in manipulating and converting point cloud data into 3D models or BIM products. Our CAD services include generating as-built 3D CAD models from point cloud data as well as creating textured 3D CAD models, each tailored to match different levels of detail according to client requirements.

In as-built documentation and new pipe system routing, the effectiveness of a as built 3D model relies heavily on the depth of information stored within the database. This is especially crucial during refurbishment projects for existing installations. It's vital to establish a clear specification for the level of detail to be included. At our end, we engage in close collaboration with clients to formulate a cost-effective solution that precisely meets your specific information requirements

Aries provides extensive 3D laser scanning and modelling services, enabling clients to visualize, analyze, and optimize their Assets with unparalleled precision and accuracy. In the oil and gas industry, especially for tank farms, this technology proves invaluable for maintenance, safety assessments, and modifications, where detailed scans are paramount. Similarly, in refurbishment projects, having precise 3D models of existing structures or spaces streamlines planning and execution. These accurate models ensure that renovations or modifications seamlessly align with the existing layout, minimizing errors and maximizing efficiency. Aries Group's expertise in these services significantly enhances efficiency, reduces costs, and provides clients with a reliable solution for their project needs.

In refurbishment projects, obtaining precise details of existing end flanges is crucial for seamless integration of new pipelines. Our expertise ensures accurate information about tie-ins, including tilt, orientation, and the number of bolts. We provide comprehensive solutions to guarantee a smooth and secure connection between existing and new lines, ensuring the integrity of the entire system.

We provide clash detection analysis services, enabling clients to compare the design model with the point cloud comparisons. Identifying clashes during the design stage facilitates cost-effective resolutions, preventing expensive delays and material expenses that could arise if issues are detected on-site. Utilizing scanning technology for construction verification ensures the faithful execution of the design concept on-site. Early detection of any deviations allows for proactive solutions, averting delays and cost overruns during construction

Most of our as-built dimensional surveys are derived from point cloud data or total station, providing precise and detailed representations. For applications requiring heightened accuracy, we offer specialized measurement services. Our software enables the generation of spool inspection drawings and reports, covering crucial elements such as flange alignment, bolt-hole rotation, and comprehensive material lists. Additionally, we prepare as-built spool fabrication drawings, reducing the overall time frame.
