Drilling Simulation Training System | Sinopec Shengli Oilfield
Axis3D built a drilling simulation training system for Sinopec Shengli Oilfield, using 3D modeling and multi-channel immersive environments to help trainees practice standard procedures and emergency responses in virtual settings, effectively reducing real-world risks.
Client Background
Sinopec Shengli Oilfield, located in the Yellow River Delta of Shandong, is China’s second-largest oilfield. Since the 1960s, it has developed over 70 oil and gas fields, serving as a major pillar of China’s energy industry.
Client Needs
Shengli Oilfield needed a virtual training platform to simulate drilling operations and emergency responses, improving worker skills, accelerating proficiency, and reducing real-world risks.
Our Solutions
In 2009, Axis3D developed a drilling simulation training system for Shengli Oilfield, offering comprehensive skill training and emergency response modules:
3D Visual Simulation – Virtools-based dynamic environments simulating surface and downhole operations.
Immersive Scenarios – Multi-channel projection for detailed on-site training.
Standardized Workflow Training – Guided practice of drilling gestures and procedures.
Emergency Simulations – Blowouts, fires, and pressure anomalies for crisis response.
Operation Tracking – Logs trainee performance with post-training analysis and improvement suggestions.
Outcomes
The drilling simulation system was integrated into Shengli Oilfield’s training program as a standard module. Trainees practiced operations in a risk-free environment, significantly reducing real-world error rates and improving overall safety and work quality.
