3D Modeling between the Underground and the Skies

3D visualization holds immense scope and numerous possibilities in the field of

Oil & Gas. All major players in the field of utility make use of 3D modeling and

animation solutions to discover and explore. Early stage exploration always

poses extreme challenges in the process of manual intervention. Underground

or under-sea mining for oil and natural resources has been nearly impossible

considering the risks involved. Hence, the global potential for tapping

unexplored resources has been deteriorating. The need for exploring several

alternatives comes at a time when existing and identifiable natural resources

have been depleting.

Adoption of 3D technology in Mining

Major international oil and gas companies are in the pursuit of richer pastures

that are often inaccessible. This is when and where 3D modeling and animation

makes things relatively simpler, more accessible and a lot more accurate and

hence efficient. The companies have gradually moved from using legacy

modeling techniques in discovery and exploration to embracing 3D

visualization that demonstrate a more realistic and effective perspective of

potential mining sites. Oil prices are visibly steep and growing at a prolific rate.

This is when the use of 3D technology to explore and perform early stage

exploration and drilling thereafter is not just precise but also cost-effective.

Due to the rise in adoption of 3D technology, a number of utility organizations

have been able to mine sites with rich natural resources both underground and

under-sea.

The Connection between Underground and the Skies

Today, the availability of air-based 3D modeling techniques have enabled oil

and natural gas companies to remotely gather data for creating 3D

visualization. Infrared sensors and cameras on aircrafts that are unmanned

help to map out a region’s potential for oil and gas. This becomes especially

significant and necessary when the region is not easily accessible because of

tough terrain or other landscaping issues. Air-based 3D modeling and

animation techniques can bypass the existing problems and make accurate

assessment of the region’s actual potential in the extraction of natural

resources. A number of geologists have already embarked on the process of

obtaining qualified geological data and many such unexplored destinations

have yielded abundance of natural resources for a better tomorrow.
