Abstract

The Architectural, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry has implemented vertical Building Information modeling (BIM) to increase the productivity and overcome the backwardness compared to other industries. The benefits of BIM deployment as a process in the AEC industry have caused the Non-Building (NB) industry to shift toward use of this concept. While the positive role of BIM implementation in the AEC industry has been proven and its levels go up increasingly, Civil Information Modeling (CIM) intends to apply the concept of BIM for the NB industry. As current research showed the lack of CIM deployment in NB, especially in the Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Construction (OGPC) industry, this research focuses on the transformation of CIM in the OGPC industry as part of the NB industry. Due to particular circumstances such as oil price fluctuations, complex and specialized nature, very strict climate and environmental regulations, project life-cycle costs and the increasing need to comply with sustainable development goals, it is required to enrich the OGPC industry by an effective concept like BIM to prevent its projects from moving towards uneconomical phases. This study is an action research that is organized in three parts through mixed methods approach including extensive literature review, semi-structured interview and focus group. This research is the second part of an ongoing CIM adoption study. It reveals the CIM uses for enriching the OGPC industry and introduces a simple CIM transformation framework for the OGPC industry firms. The challenges, limitations, gaps, and requirements for the faster transformation of CIM in the OGPC industry are highlighted and future needed studies are addressed.
