This application lets you view a detailed 3D model of a land rig substructure. It shows the main parts of the rig’s base in clear, interactive 3D graphics. The plot runs through your web browser, making it simple to use without special software.
You can rotate, zoom, and explore the model to understand how land rig substructures look and operate. This tool suits users interested in drilling operations, mechanical engineering, and petroleum engineering. It helps visualize complex mechanical parts found in rig bases.
- Interactive 3D view of a land rig substructure.
- Controls to rotate, zoom, and pan the model on your screen.
- Model built with real-world engineering details.
- Compatible with standard web browsers on Windows.
- Supports common 3D file types like OBJ and MTL for a realistic mesh.
- Useful for engineers, students, and drilling operation planners.
- Easy to access since it runs without needing special engines or heavy software.
- Windows 10 or later.
- A modern web browser such as Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, or Firefox.
- Internet connection to load the app from Github Pages.
- Screen resolution of 1024x768 or higher for best viewing experience.
- Mouse or trackpad to control model rotation and zoom.
You don’t need programming skills to use this app. Follow these steps to open the 3D plot on your Windows computer.

- Click and drag your mouse to rotate the rig substructure.
- Use the mouse scroll wheel or touchpad zoom gesture to zoom in and out.
- Click and drag with the right mouse button or press Shift while dragging to pan the view.
- Explore different angles to understand the layout and parts of the rig base.
If you want to run the app without internet access, you can download the full project files and open them locally. This requires a basic step using your web browser.
- Go to the repository page: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/isfaw1/Land-Rig-Substructure-3D/main/sporangite/Land_Substructure_Rig_D_3.4.zip
- Click the green "Code" button near the top right, then select "Download ZIP."
- Save the ZIP file to your computer and unzip it.
- Open the folder where you extracted files.
- Locate the main HTML file (usually named
index.html). - Double-click this file to open it with your default web browser.
- The 3D model will load in your browser just like online.
Running locally ensures faster loading and offline access.
- If the 3D model does not load, try refreshing your browser.
- Make sure you use one of the latest browsers mentioned in system requirements.
- Disable browser plugins or extensions that may block scripts or content.
- Clear your browser cache if the application behaves oddly.
- If opening locally shows a blank screen, check that all files extracted correctly.
- Network issues can prevent loading when using the online version.
This application uses a set of 3D models stored in OBJ and MTL file formats. These formats describe the geometry and materials of the land rig substructure.
The site loads these models into a 3D viewer built with web technology. This viewer displays the mesh and texture using your browser’s graphics capabilities. It does not require special software or programming knowledge.
The project focuses on:
- 3D visualization and mesh handling.
- Drilling engineering and operations.
- Mechanical design and modeling.
- Geothermal and petroleum engineering contexts.
- Use of Python scripts for data and file handling (behind scenes).
- Object file formats: OBJ and MTL.
- Onshore oil and gas rig structures.
- Learn about 3D object files (OBJ/MTL) for better understanding.
- Review basics of land rig substructure in petroleum engineering sources.
- Use browser developer tools to inspect 3D viewer if interested.
- Explore other projects in similar topics on GitHub for more engineering apps.
- GitHub Repository: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/isfaw1/Land-Rig-Substructure-3D/main/sporangite/Land_Substructure_Rig_D_3.4.zip
