PDMS (Plant Design Management System) is a comprehensive 3D plant design software developed by AVEVA. It is widely used for designing, modeling, and managing complex industrial plants, including oil and gas, petrochemical, power, and water treatment facilities.
PDMS allows engineers to create a fully integrated 3D model of the plant, including piping, equipment, structural elements, HVAC, and instrumentation. The software facilitates collaboration across multiple disciplines, enabling accurate design, clash detection, and efficient project management throughout the plant lifecycle.
Essential for professionals in plant design, engineering, and project management.
Improves design accuracy, reduces errors, and enhances coordination among engineering teams.
Prepares learners for careers in oil & gas, chemical, energy, and process industries.
Provides hands-on experience in 3D modeling, design validation, and plant management workflows.
3D Plant Modeling – Design and visualize piping, equipment, structural, HVAC, and instrumentation systems.
Clash Detection & Coordination – Identify and resolve conflicts between different disciplines.
Collaboration & Multi-User Environment – Multiple engineers can work on the same project simultaneously.
Integration with Engineering Data – Link design data with specifications, material lists, and documentation.
Simulation & Analysis – Check for layout feasibility, accessibility, and compliance with standards.
Industry Applications – Widely used in oil & gas, petrochemical, power plants, water treatment, and industrial projects.
