Energy

Asset owners and service providers operating in the critical domain of energy production must fully exploit advances in technology to ensure the future reliability and resilience of the complex systems that drive productivity. To achieve this, systems information must be centralised and digital. So, it’s no surprise that many of our clients in the energy sector discovered dad after struggling to manage the enormous amount of complex data for their projects using traditional decentralised documentation methods.

One centralised systems information model for all team members.

In dad everyone works together on one centralised digital model of the complex systems. Any change to the system is recorded in the model and is immediately available to everyone working on it. The model acts as a repository of change management information so, there is no loss of data. dad provides a powerful and integrated approach to the design and management of complex systems.

Our clients in the energy sector, including Ørsted who have used dad since 2001, have achieved outstanding results on greenfield and brownfield projects.

Benefits of using dad for energy

                
                                        Enhanced knowledge of existing systems that improves the ability to manage future upgrades.

                
                                        Compliance to regulatory requirements made easier. All change management is recorded in the model and the information is instantaneously available.

                
                                        Future proofing: enables green energy integration of existing systems through improved systems knowledge.

(dad's) great benefits were the cost saving over conventional methods and the accuracy of sole source data… As a result of the success in design, ConocoPhillips have adopted dad for long term use on the Bayu Undan facility.

Mike Whitfield, Project Manager, TIGA

Being a system modelling environment somewhat analogous to BIM for structures, it was clear (dad’s) efficiency gains would be no less profound for our business… There is no question that for future projects of any significant size that I have influence over, they will be designed in dad from the outset. The benefits simply cannot be ignored.
