XfactorDES is a software application developed to visualise actual offshore installations and environments in the form of 3D. The software makes it possible to import your real world data such as:
- Geographical information
- CAD data
- Laser scans
- Control systems
- Environmental data
- Physics simulation result
- GPS tracking data
Area of use
Broadcasting or distributing high quality 3D real-time visualisation of the drilling process to those involved, whether they are located on the drilling unit or onshore, will increase the quality of critical decision making. Faster, more qualified decision making in time critical processes will subsequently result in cost savings.
The system can be used through the entire lifecycle of a construction.
As an example, training of operators and system engineers in the simulator in parallel with construction prior to commissioning has proven a number of benefits, such as reduced commissioning time and higher regularity in operation.
For rigs in operation our training helps drillers operate the rig faster. It also helps them get back on track faster after crew change. This means that drilling companies can get the rig in effective production sooner and experience less stops caused by human errors.
