Capture, measure, and visualize subsea assets
Viewing subsea assets in true scale and detail helps operators reduce uncertainty and make informed offshore decisions. Zupt’s 3D Modeling service provides a precise, efficient way to capture those assets as high-resolution point clouds and mesh models.
These models support accurate measurements, digital twin generation, inspection, and metrology. The system is easy to mobilize and integrates into existing inspection, repair, and maintenance operations.
How Zupt Produces the Models
Zupt’s 3D Modeling service uses 3D Recon, a subsea stereo imaging system that combines high-resolution machine vision cameras with a compact MEMS inertial measurement unit (IMU).
By integrating inertial navigation, stereo vision, and computer vision algorithms, the system produces geospatially correct models, even in challenging offshore conditions. These deliverables support dimensional control, change detection, and engineering validation.
3D Recon V2 is rated to 4,000 meters and designed for fast setup with minimal disruption to ROV operations.
Verify Coverage While Offshore
3D Recon V2 provides real-time dense reconstruction, allowing operators to verify coverage, assess quality, and confirm data completeness while still offshore.
This real-time quality control helps reduce rework, vessel time, and operational risk while maintaining survey-grade accuracy.
Applications
Zupt’s 3D Modeling service supports:
- Pipeline and free-span surveys
- Mooring, hull, and SPAR inspections
- Dimensional control and as-built documentation
- Anode depletion and corrosion monitoring
- Integrity management and asset tracking
Engineering and Inspection Benefits
High-resolution, spatially consistent models allow engineers to take repeatable measurements and compare asset condition over time.
The models support accurate, contactless measurements and digital twins that can evolve with each inspection. They also streamline inspection and metrology workflows, providing detailed information for offshore decisions.
Deliverables and Traceability
Clients receive high-resolution point clouds, mesh models, and detailed, high-density 3D models.
Each project’s deliverables are traceable and spatially consistent. Every model is delivered with a traceable workflow, providing confidence in the data and ensuring compatibility with engineering and asset management platforms.
