Technical Scope

3D Modelling & Plant Design Technical Overview

Deep Ocean delivers high-fidelity, database-driven 3D plant design and engineering solutions for greenfield and brownfield process facilities. Utilizing industry-leading plant design management systems, we construct unified digital twins that centralize all physical and attribute data across mechanical, piping, structural, electrical, and instrumentation disciplines.

Our multidisciplinary 3D modeling workflows prevent costly field rework through real-time clash detection, constructability reviews, and staged model verification walkthroughs. The federated intelligent database serves as the authoritative single source of truth, automating deliverable generation and providing clients with rich digital assets for lifecycle operations.

Key Execution Highlights

  • Integrated multidisciplinary model federation (Piping, Steel, E&I, Mechanical)
  • Automated clash detection matrices and resolution tracking logs
  • Point-cloud laser scan reverse engineering for brownfield plant revamps
  • High-precision digital twin deliverables for operational maintenance

Capabilities Matrix

3D Modelling & Plant Design Capabilities

Configuration of design databases, project catalogs, piping specifications, and user permissions across distributed engineering teams.

Engineering Governance

Quality Assurance & Verification

Every deliverable follows a structured 6-stage engineering audit process aligned with international design codes and project specifications.

Design Review

Initial engineering review of approach, methodology, client specifications, and applicable design codes.

Engineering Check

Detailed multi-discipline check of sizing calculations, layout clearances, and drawing accuracy.

Code & Standard Verification

Rigorous compliance verification against international codes (ASME B31.3, B31.1, API, BS, EN, ISO).

Interdisciplinary Coordination

Cross-discipline spatial review to ensure zero clash tolerance across piping, structural, electrical, and process.

Model / Drawing Review

Formal 3D database and drawing review against constructability and operational safety standards.

Final QA/QC Sign-off

Final quality assurance and quality control verification before formal issuance of IFC deliverable packages.
