Flying personnel to offshore rigs, remote pipelines, or desert installations is expensive—not to mention risky and time-consuming. Travel-related costs in oil and gas can eat up a massive portion of operational budgets 💸:
What if you could eliminate 70% of those costs—while still giving your team complete visual access to every part of the rig?
360° virtual tours make that possible. 🌍👷♂️
360° virtual tours are immersive, interactive walkthroughs of real-world oil and gas sites—captured with 360° cameras or drones. Using platforms like CloudPano, you can explore these environments from any laptop, phone, or headset.
Instead of booking flights, your team can:
It’s the ultimate travel cost-saver—without compromising visibility or performance.
Let’s break down exactly how 360° rig tours reduce travel costs across departments:
Engineers no longer need to visit the rig to validate equipment placement or design clearances. They can inspect in 360°, measure digitally, and verify remotely.

Safety teams can review ladders, barriers, walkways, and fire suppression systems in a virtual tour—saving time and avoiding unnecessary travel.
Instead of flying in vendors to “walk the site,” send them a 360° tour. They’ll arrive prepared with zero guesswork—saving time and reducing field errors.
