TSI - Project Overview
This web application would be used to present technical information about a TSI project, specifics about machinery, processes, etc. to a prospective client. It could highlight such features as customized 3D modeling for site specifics, live jobsite layouts over Teams calls, and 3D-integrated documentation.
Fast 3D Prototyping
All jobsite machinery is represented by to-scale 3D models. These models, used specifically for visualization purposes, can be created and revised very quickly when compared to those used for manufacturing purposes.
Live Jobsite Layouts
Jobsite layouts can be created in real-time over a Teams call. This serves two main benefits: First, all the equipment to be used can be placed and adjusted according to the physical dimensions of the site, showing potential hazards and/or challenges to be addressed. Secondly, all interested parties in this stage of the project can have input and be updated simultaneously, helping ensure clear communication at every step.
Documentation
All customized 3D work is followed up with detailed documentation for project coordination and record keeping. This typically includes BOP drawings, jobsite layout renders and choke manifold plans.

BOP Stack
Description
a critical assembly of large, high-pressure valves installed on a wellhead to control subterranean pressures and prevent uncontrolled releases (blowouts) of oil and gas during drilling operations. It's a vertical arrangement of several BOP units, including annular preventers (sealing around various pipe sizes or the open hole) and ram preventers (sealing around specific pipe sizes, blind/shear for total closure), plus essential piping like choke and kill lines, to manage wellbore fluids and pressure.

Choke
Description
A complex assembly of pipes, valves (including adjustable chokes), and gauges used to control high pressures and flow rates from a wellhead during drilling and production, primarily by creating a controlled pressure drop to manage fluid/gas release, prevent blowouts, and allow for well testing and clean-up by routing flow through different paths. It provides essential pressure management by allowing operators to regulate flow, often featuring redundant chokes for safety and maintenance, and connecting to blowout preventers (BOPs) for well control operations.

Accumulator
Description
A pressure vessel that stores hydraulic energy, typically using a pre-charged, inert gas (like nitrogen) separated from hydraulic fluid by a bladder, diaphragm, or piston, allowing it to provide immediate power for critical functions like blowout preventer (BOP) operation, smooth pulsations, and maintain system pressure during pump fluctuations. Essentially, it acts as a pressurized energy reservoir, releasing stored fluid when the system needs a boost and absorbing excess fluid when pressure rises.

• Gas Chamber: Pre-charged with nitrogen (never oxygen, due to explosion risk).
• Fluid Chamber: Connected to the hydraulic system, holding incompressible hydraulic oil.
• Separator: A bladder, diaphragm, or piston keeps the gas and oil separate.
• Operation: When system pressure increases, oil enters the accumulator, compressing the gas. When system pressure drops, the expanding gas pushes the stored oil back into the system, maintaining consistent pressure and flow.

Degasser
Description
a crucial piece of equipment that removes unwanted gases (like methane, H₂S, CO₂) from drilling fluids and produced oil/water, preventing operational hazards, improving safety, and increasing efficiency. It works by creating low pressure (vacuum) or using centrifugal force in a vessel, causing gas bubbles to expand and separate from the liquid, often by spreading the fluid into a thin film over a baffle. The separated gas is then safely vented or reinjected, leaving cleaner fluids for further processing or transport.
Key Operations
• Gas-Cut Fluid Entry: Gas-cut drilling mud enters the degasser tank after passing the shakers (which remove large solids).
• Low Pressure Creation: A vacuum pump pulls air from the tank, and a jet nozzle at the discharge creates a low-pressure zone, making the gas bubbles expand.
• Thin Film Separation: Inside, the mud flows over a baffle, spreading into a thin layer, maximizing surface area for gas release.
• Gas Extraction: The low pressure causes gas bubbles to escape the thin mud layer and be continuously drawn out by the vacuum pump.
• Clean Fluid Discharge: Degassed mud exits through the discharge line into the next mud pit.
• Low Pressure Creation: A vacuum pump pulls air from the tank, and a jet nozzle at the discharge creates a low-pressure zone, making the gas bubbles expand.
