Virtual Eye: Creating a Unified Digital Reality for Offshore Asset Management
1. Challenge
Asset-intensive industries often operate with fragmented data—from legacy drawings and isolated control systems to disparate ERP modules. This lack of a single source of truth hinders decision-making, prolongs maintenance cycles, and forces personnel to undertake unnecessary and costly site visits. A major energy operator needed a unified platform to visualize, interrogate, and manage their offshore assets remotely, integrating real-time and historical data to enhance operational efficiency and safety.

2. Our Approach & Solution
The Geosoft Digital Twin department developed and deployed 'Virtual Eye', our proprietary digital twin platform. Our approach was to create a central nervous system for physical assets, moving beyond simple 3D visualization to an intelligent, data-rich environment.
- Platform Architecture: We built a scalable cloud-based platform leveraging microservices architecture, ensuring robust performance and easy integration with existing client systems.
- ERP & System Integration: Virtual Eye was seamlessly integrated with the client’s SAP system and other data sources, pulling in live tag information, maintenance histories, and work orders directly into the 3D model.
- AI & Computer Vision: We implemented machine learning algorithms to automate the recognition and registration of asset tag numbers from point cloud data, eliminating manual entry and ensuring data accuracy.
- User-Centric Design: The interface was designed for intuitive use, requiring minimal training. Critical information is contextualized within the 3D environment, putting asset data, documentation, and real-time metrics at the user’s fingertips.

4. Results & Impact
- Operational Efficiency: Reduced the time for asset data retrieval and validation by 90%, enabling faster and more informed decision-making.
- Cost & Safety: Eliminated the need for frequent physical site visits for data verification and planning, resulting in significant travel cost savings and enhanced personnel safety.
- Data Integrity: Achieved 100% integration between the 3D model and the client’s SAP ERP, creating a single, reliable source of truth for the asset lifecycle.
- Future-Proofing: Established a scalable digital backbone that supports future expansion, including IoT sensor integration and predictive maintenance modules, maximizing the asset’s long-term value.
Conclusion
This project demonstrates Geosoft's capability to deliver not just a model, but a mission-critical operational platform. By fusing precise 3D visualization with deep enterprise data integration and AI, we provided a clear, actionable view of complex assets.
