Case Study: 3D Wellhead Animation

3D visualization of a wellhead system highlighting internal components in blue and orange designed to illustrate functionality and assembly details

Project Overview

Encore Wellhead Systems approached Austin Visuals 3D Animation Studio to create a detailed 3D animation showcasing the assembly process of their 13-5/8” 10M EMB1 Wellhead System. This animation was designed to demonstrate the technical assembly sequence, the functionality of key components, and the overall integration of the wellhead system in an engaging and visually clear manner. The final product was aimed at supporting Encore’s sales and marketing efforts, as well as serving as an educational tool for presentations to clients and stakeholders.

The Challenge

Encore Wellhead Systems required a comprehensive visualization of their wellhead system’s assembly. The challenge lay in presenting highly technical and intricate processes in a way that was not only accurate but also engaging for a diverse audience. The animation needed to:

  • Accurately depict the complex assembly of components, including casings, hangers, and seals.
  • Showcase the functionality of tools like wash tools, hydraulic tools, and packoff support bushings in action.
  • Integrate supporting elements like zoom-ins and cross-sections to explain the locking mechanisms and hydraulic processes.
  • Meet a tight production schedule of 4-6 weeks while adhering to the highest quality standards.

The Solution

Austin Visuals developed a 3D animation that captured the assembly process step by step. The team worked closely with Encore Wellhead Systems to refine the storyboard and ensure every detail was accurately represented.

The animation began with the 13-5/8” casing emerging from the ground, followed by the landing of the wellhead system and the sequential installation of components. High-resolution visuals depicted:

    • The landing and locking of casing hangers.
    • The operation of hydraulic tools during the locking sequences.
    • The functionality of wash tools, including water flow simulations.
    • Final cross-sectional views of the fully assembled wellhead.

    Branding elements, such as Encore’s logo, were seamlessly integrated into the video, maintaining consistency with the company’s professional image.

    The Results

    The completed animation successfully illustrated the intricate assembly of Encore’s wellhead system in a concise, 80-second video. Key outcomes included:

    • Enhanced Clarity: The animation broke down complex processes into easy-to-understand visuals, effectively communicating the system’s features and benefits.
    • Professional Presentation: High-quality 3D visuals elevated Encore’s brand image, providing a polished tool for sales, marketing, and training purposes.
    • Timely Delivery: Despite the technical complexity, the project was delivered within the agreed 4-6 week timeline, ensuring client satisfaction.
