AVEVA has confirmed that Fabricom Offshore Services, is using AVEVA software for the brownfield modification of GDF Suez’s Cygnus Platform in 2016. Using LFM Server ™ and AVEVA Laser Model Interface™, Fabricom can economically capture the asset’s as-built configuration into the AVEVA 3D design environment. AVEVA’s 3D design modeling software will enable Fabricom to create an accurate and complete 3D design to improve operation and maintenance efficiency for the platform.
Evgeny Fedotov, senior VP, Global Head of EPC Sales, AVEVA said ‘Our 3D laser scanning software efficiently and accurately captures the as-built asset to create a data-driven baseline for revamps, improvement planning and operational compliance. The ability to work expertly with aging brownfield assets is now essential for both EPCs and their Owner Operators (OOs). It is an important enabler of efficient plant revamp and upgrade projects, reducing the cost, risk and downtime during plant modification. This is particularly important when revamping complex or extremely dense assets such as offshore facilities. The capability allows EPCs and OOs to create a detailed Digital Asset that accurately represents the physical asset in order to support the extended life cycle of their facilities’.
