Oil and Gas
BIM and Digital Twin to reinforce asset integrity management and enhance competitiveness.
Industry Challenge
The oil and gas industry is undergoing a renewal process. The sector is investing in decarbonization efforts, requiring the incorporation of new assets with different design, construction, and operation methodologies. Simultaneously, it must continue to develop new explorations, closely monitor the integrity of existing assets, and carry out debottleneck or decommissioning works for facilities.
To achieve this, many companies in the industry already work with Building Information Modeling (BIM) methodology and have invested in digital twins. These technologies allow for the orderly and reliable centralization of information required for monitoring, optimization, and decision-making in their projects, facilities, and processes.
However, when it comes to applying or taking advantage of the full potential of BIM and digital twins, the industry is still limited by barriers such as:
- The absence of a data model adapted to the new business.
- The difficulty in selecting the appropriate technologies and tools for their businesses.
- The unresolved interoperability between digital models and existing systems.
- The existence of internal information silos.
- The lack of modeling and data format standardization at the company or sectoral level.
- The lack of investment in team training in these new technologies.
Modelical helps companies in the oil and gas industry design and implement scalable and business-adapted digital project and asset management strategies to reinforce their competitiveness. To do this, we combine our technical knowledge in BIM, data modeling, technology implementation, and digital twin development.

Our approach
We have been working for over 10 years in leading and rigorous industries such as oil and gas, energy, data centers, and infrastructure and transportation. We create ad-hoc teams composed of industry specialist engineers, IT infrastructure experts, and developers for digital twin and digital asset management projects. For specific exploration, rationalization, or decommissioning projects, we put at your disposal our simulation, algorithm and software development teams as well as our BIM management office. We scale our teams according to your projects.
