Case Studies
Case Study: Laser Scanning & Pipe Tie-in Survey – Gas Processing Plant (Eastern States)
We performed a high-precision 3D laser scan and pipe tie-in survey around the Sour Rich MEG Tank B at a major gas processing facility. The resulting point cloud delivered accurate as-built data to support engineers in designing new pipework and structural modifications with confidence and efficiency.
Darwin LNG Facility – Digital Twin Virtual Tour
Viewtech3d transformed the Darwin LNG facility into an interactive Digital Twin, combining high-resolution 360° imagery with accurate point cloud laser scan data. This bespoke platform gives engineers and contractors instant access to every part of the site, complete with embedded documents, videos, and training tools. Teams in Perth and Darwin can now collaborate as if they were on-site, using real-world accurate data to design, review, and plan projects with confidence. The result is fewer costly site visits, safer operations, streamlined communication, and precise planning for future expansions.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is 3D scanning for oil and gas?
3D scanning for oil and gas is a non-contact method to capture exact “as-built” data of plants, vessels, and pipelines. This data is critical for planning retrofits, verifying asset integrity, and ensuring there are no clashes before expensive new components are fabricated.
What is a pipe tie-in survey?
A pipe tie-in survey is a highly accurate dimensional control survey. We use a 3D laser scanner to precisely measure the location and orientation of an existing pipe’s connection point. This data is used to fabricate new pipework, guaranteeing a 100% first-time fit during a shutdown, which saves critical time and money.
How is a digital twin used for oil & gas assets?
A digital twin for oil & gas is a 3D interactive replica of your facility. It combines 3D scan data with maintenance records and inspection reports. It’s used for remote asset monitoring, virtual inspections, safety planning, and managing compliance, all without requiring teams to be physically on-site in hazardous zones.
Are your drone pilots certified for industrial sites?
Yes. All our drone operators are CASA-certified (Civil Aviation Safety Authority) and fully insured. We are experienced in adhering to the strict safety and permit-to-work protocols required on high-risk industrial, mining, and oil & gas facilities.
