About Rig3D

Why a Studio Just for Drilling?

General animation shops can make anything look shiny. What they usually can't do is tell a traveling block from a top drive, or know that the camera angle on a ram preventer matters to the engineer watching. We have spent years making 3D animation and training content for the oil and gas industry, so we speak the language before the first call.

How We Work

We're a small team, and we like it that way. You talk to the people building your animation, not a chain of account managers. We ask a lot of questions up front, we show work early, and we fix things fast.

We also have a background in eLearning and multimedia, which is why our training animations are built for how people actually learn, not just for how they look.

Why We Publish Free Resources

The Resources library started because we kept explaining the same equipment to new people on projects. Good explanations are hard to find, so we write them down. Use them for training, share them with your team, or send them to the relative who asks what you actually do at work.

Let's Talk

If you have equipment, a process or a rig that needs explaining, get in touch. Tell us what you're working on and we'll tell you honestly how we'd approach it.
