Ammonia Plant Laser Scan

SETCH Design was tasked with scanning a large section of brownfield plant for new piping to be run.


The new pipe runs needed to connect multiple tie in points at each end of the 70m proposed pipe run through dense existing piping, structure and process equipment. Potential support locations and access points were identified. The scan data was aligned to site datum for future works. Scan data was transmitted to stakeholders in a variety of formats (.ptx, .pts, .rcp, .rcs and TruView) for project planning and design.
