SmartPlant 3D (SP3D) is an advanced 3D plant design software developed by Intergraph (Hexagon PPM), widely used for designing, modeling, and managing complex industrial plants. SP3D allows engineers to create fully integrated 3D models of piping, equipment, structural elements, HVAC, and instrumentation systems, enabling accurate visualization, clash detection, and project coordination.
SP3D is extensively used in industries such as oil & gas, petrochemical, power plants, chemical, and water treatment. The software enhances collaboration among multiple disciplines and ensures that designs comply with industry standards, reducing errors and improving efficiency 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, petrochemical, power, and process industries.
Provides hands-on experience in 3D modeling, design validation, and plant management workflows.
3D Plant Modeling – Design and visualize piping, equipment, structures, HVAC, and instrumentation.
Clash Detection & Coordination – Identify and resolve conflicts between different disciplines.
Multi-User Collaboration – Allows multiple engineers to work simultaneously on the same project.
Integration with Engineering Data – Connects design data with specifications, material lists, and documentation.
