My main use case for Autodesk AutoCAD is teaching the AutoCAD course in the college where students are doing the architectural technology program, so we want to learn how to create floor plans and how to create different sort of details and hatchings for the floor plans and diagrams. A specific example of something my students have created with Autodesk AutoCAD recently is the floor plans of a house with two or three bedrooms, and they also used it to create a sectional diagram to show the different sections of the house, the wall diagrams, and all those kinds of things. Additionally, my students use Autodesk AutoCAD for taking this information and putting it in Autodesk Revit to create three-dimensional designs, and they use it for doing analysis, electrical diagrams, HVAC diagrams, and many other things.
We are still using Oracle as a database engine because we are still on the engineering applications which support Oracle databases. This is basically related to engineering applications for the oil and gas industry design applications, like 3D modeling databases. Our main core business is engineering, so as a back-end platform to store the repository data, we use Oracle database. For the engineering applications, we work with Bentley, Autodesk, Hexagon and AspenTech, which are the engineering developers we collaborate with. Autodesk is mainly used for the drafting engine, but for some customer demands for 3D, we use Plant 3D as a tool for the design of the oil and gas industry. We use Autodesk AutoCAD, Autodesk AutoCAD Plant 3D, Civil 3D, Navisworks, Navis Simulate, and Revit. We are using all of these tools. It basically depends on the customer. Most of the drafting work is done on Autodesk AutoCAD, but design and the terrain and 3D work related to civil is done in Civil 3D. For Autodesk AutoCAD, our main end customer is the oil and gas industry in UAE and Saudi Arabia. This is the main customer. It is for drafting, design, and the process industry. All aspects, whether the civil design, process P&IDs or the mechanical design work for the equipment, everything which needs to be drawn, our draftsman uses Autodesk AutoCAD.
