Virtual reality As Built Modelling & Training
Virtual reality As Built Modelling & Training
The key to a successful project is the assurance that the installation has been carried out in accordance with the design specification. To provide assurance to clients, evidence is required in the form of as-built documentation and certification. Often, this can go missing throughout the project lifecycle and lead to financial impacts to both clients and contractors.
Adopting virtual reality As Built modelling holds the keys to success by retaining project ‘As Built’ information in a safe, virtual world to ensure all key documentation is available in one place at-a-glance, which can be accessed from anywhere in the world by project and operations teams.
VR modelling with integrated As Built documentation can mitigate the risks presented by the loss of important documents, drawingsand certifications by providing a single point of storage and reference for all documents. With challenging weather conditions, logistical constraints and health & safety factors faced, for example in the offshore renewable energy sector, VR technology enables clients to view the condition of there assets along with the as-built documentation at the time handover from a much safer location onshore. We like to call it the virtual handover.
Key advantages of VR
- Retain as-built documentation, certification, and Operations and maintenance manuals all in one virtual reality model
- Integrated digital documentation
- accurate model of asset condition at handover
- Maintain an accurate digital history of an asset
- Ability to update asset model with modifications made during the operations and maintenance phases
- Train personnel on the asset they will be installing, operating, and maintaining from any location
- Provide accurate engineering support to field technicians
- Increased document control efficiency
- Eliminate hazards posed by offshore site visits
- Multiple user access
- Efficient, cost-effective training
