Maintaining operational efficiency and safety is paramount and we can help you by providing advanced 3D modelling for industrial plants, thus transforming complex physical assets into intelligent, data-rich digital replicas.
Our services are essential for brownfield revamps, as-built documentation, and structural integrity management, allowing plant owners to visualize, simulate, and optimize their facilities without interrupting production.
We use a “Reality Capture” approach to ensure every bolt, flange, and pipe is modeled with millimetric precision. Our specialized equipment includes:
- High-Definition Laser Scanners: stationary scanners that capture millions of points per second with ±2mm accuracy, ideal for congested piping and MEP systems;
- Mobile & SLAM Scanners for rapid mapping of large-scale industrial warehouses and logistical hubs;
- Drone-Based Photogrammetry & LiDAR to capture high-altitude structural data of flare stacks, cooling towers, and storage tanks.
We translate raw point cloud data into actionable engineering formats compatible with industry-standard software:
- Intelligent 3D CAD models created in AVEVA E3D/PDMS, Bentley MicroStation, or AutoCAD Plant 3D;
- Scan-to-BIM models, like high-fidelity Revit models for facility management and architectural integration;
- P&ID & Isometrics, for accurate extraction of piping & instrumentation diagrams and isometrics for fabrication;
- Clash detection reports (using Navisworks), to identify interferences before new equipment is installed;
- Cloud-based digital twins: these are interactive virtual plants that allow for remote inspection, safety training, and predictive maintenance.
3D modelling offers several strategic benefits for the industrial sector, including shutdowns minimization, regulatory and HSE compliance with the standards of ADNOC, Dubai Municipality, DEWA, and Saudi Vision 2030, maintenance optimization and real-time asset monitoring.
Another advantage of 3D modelling is the facility to establish global collaborations by enabling international engineering teams to perform “virtual site visits”, which reduce travel costs and accelerate project timelines.
Our fleet equipment contains different technologies suited for diverse project, and includes SLAM-based handheld mapping which uses Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) technology and can map indoor spaces, tunnels, and dense environments where GPS signals are blocked or inaccessible, as well as tripod-mounted scanners that capture ultra-high-resolution 3D point clouds, ideal for structural integrity surveys and complex MEP documentation, offering ±2mm accuracy even in low-light or confined industrial spaces.
Then we transform millions of laser points into usable engineering data, like survey-grade point clouds, registered and geo-referenced to the local coordinate systems (UTM/DLTM), 3D Revit and ArchiCAD models, 2D planimetric and elevation drawings extracted from high-density 3D data, and deformation analysis maps to identify structural shifts or “settlement troughs” over time.
3D modelling has many industry applications, including:
- Scan-to-BIM for high-rises: creating precise 3D models of existing buildings for renovation or as-built compliance with Dubai Municipality standards;
- Industrial and refinery surveys: detailed 3D mapping of complex pipe networks and steel structures in oil & gas facilities (e.g., ADNOC or Aramco sites);
- Historical and heritage preservation: non-destructive 3D digitization of heritage sites in Al-Ula or Al Ain, preserving cultural history in high-fidelity digital formats;
Underground and tunnel surveys: mapping metro extensions and utility tunnels where traditional GPS cannot reach.
