A completions and perforation campaign combining a jack-up drilling unit with an existing platform. Equipment from multiple contractors had to be modelled and sequenced together before mobilisation.
Partway through, the operator wanted to compare a schedule change against the original plan — before deciding which to commit to.
Equipment scans combined with client-supplied models into one accurate environment. Sequences storyboarded and approved before animation began.
Both the original and revised approach were animated, giving the team a direct comparison before they committed.
The model became the reference every contractor worked from — issues found before mobilisation, not after.
One of a programme of campaign sequencing animations delivered for operators and drilling contractors across the North Sea since 2020.
Scope and available information agreed with the operator.
Campaign equipment scanned and modelled.
Client-supplied and Phase models combined into one environment.
Draft sequences approved before animation began.
Full sequences produced, including both approaches.
Reviewed and approved with the operator and contractors.
Every model built from verified data — client-supplied and scanned — not approximated from drawings.
Checked and approved by every contractor before mobilisation, not signed off by one party alone.
A schedule change assessed on what it would actually look like, not on assumption.
Established on screen before it happened offshore.
New or modified equipment must be introduced into a fixed environment — clearances are verified before fabrication or installation is committed.
Reference material only helps if it can be trusted — drawings and records are reconciled against physical reality before they’re relied on.
Complex technical conditions are hard to picture from drawings alone — they’re made clear enough to decide on, in the room, together.
New or modified systems must connect at defined points — physical compatibility is confirmed before engineering commitments are made
