Intergraph(R) CAESAR II(R) and Smart(TM) 3D Interface Help Agility Group Reduce Modeling Time on Drilling Rig Upgrade in North Sea

HOUSTON, TX--(Marketwired - Mar 31, 2014) - Intergraph has published a new case study that describes how Agility Group completed extensive modifications on time for COSL Europe on a Statoil rig upgrade project in the North Sea by using Intergraph CAESAR II and its interface with Intergraph Smart 3D interface for engineering analysis and 3D modeling. The firm was under a tight deadline from the client to complete numerous unforeseen upgrades required by Norwegian regulations. With the Smart 3D and CAESAR II interface, one piping designer, one stress analysis engineer, and one support engineer were able to work simultaneously in a common database, saving extensive time while eliminating manual errors and speeding the completion of isometric drawings and stress reports.

Agility Group provides full service engineering, procurement, construction and installation for major clients engaged in onshore, offshore, and subsea areas. Drawing upon more than 150 years of experience, the Norwegian-headquartered company today employs 1,500 people.
