This is a 3D model of the TLP oil rig. Tension leg oil platforms are offshore structures used for oil and gas exploration and production. They are designed to float on the water’s surface while being anchored to the seabed using tensioned vertical tendons or columns. Tension leg platforms are known for their ability to provide a stable and relatively motion-free platform for drilling and production activities, making them a popular choice in deepwater locations.
The Malikai Shell project is a significant deepwater oil and gas development located off the coast of Malaysia. For more details, please read about how this 3D model was created in our blog article “Oil platform 3D modeling.“
