VRcontext is a leading provider of integrated real-time visualization software benefitting the Oil & Gas, Process, Energy, Architecture/Engineering/Construction (AEC), and Homeland Security sectors around the world
VRcontext’s two landmark products—Walkinside® and ProcessLife®—ensure seamless continuity between the EPC phases of complex major capital projects and their subsequent operation by Owner-operators, by efficiently supporting operation optimization, asset life-cycle management, real-time monitoring, and simulation for industrial safety and training
Walkinside (shown highlighted in blue in the chart above) automatically creates a complete 3D virtual model of facilities, merging files from diverse data sources and proprietary formats such as:
-
multi-vendor 3D CAD data, together with its associated engineering databases
-
laser scanning output
-
aerial photography
-
digital terrain models (DTM)
Walkinside also includes bidirectional smart links to near-static information such as:
-
document management systems
-
enterprise resource planning (ERP) tools
-
operational databases, such as asset integrity management
By federating such diverse and often hard-to-integrate information, Walkinside becomes a 3D portal and intuitively helps asset and operations managers work more effectively in an immersive intelligent-decision environment, supporting common asset views between the various disciplines and business activities.
ProcessLife (shown highlighted in grey in the chart) helps capitalize on this powerful software by:
-
enabling bidirectional links to real-time applications such as SCADA/DCS and process simulation
-
helping to maneuver remotely operated vehicles
-
displaying results from computational fluid dynamics (CFD)
-
locating field operators in 3D
-
leveraging HSE and training applications
By geo-referencing such critical information to the relevant infrastructure, this integrated operating environment dramatically enhances a control room operator’s ability to effectively collaborate with managers, subject-matter experts, and decision-makers by supporting shared views of complex asset models and time-transient information from simulated or measured parameters. This enables direct comparisons between real-time sensor information and the results of computational simulations, such as for corrosion, compositional fluid flow, pressure-temperature, and industrial processes, displayed in a virtual 3D environment.
In this advanced working environment, enterprise resources reach optimized critical decisions faster and more certainly because confusion and misunderstandings are minimized.
Owner/Operators can improve personnel safety and training, as well as simulate catastrophic events to help prepare for facility evacuations and emergency response. Through real-time and global access, decision-makers can access vital data and help solve unexpected problems—creating optimized return on asset investments and operating expenses. |
