Overview
Before BHP exited the oil and gas industry following the merger of their hydrocarbon business with Woodside Energy, we produced a series of induction videos for different areas within BHP. At the time, the company was still known as BHP Billiton, which later rebranded to BHP.
The Macedon development is located in Western Australia approximately 75 km west of Onslow. The Project Team required an engaging induction to be initially used in pre-commissioning and to be adapted as the project transitioned into operations. To achieve this as seamlessly and cost-effectively as possible, SHIIFT came up with a modular approach that meant that sequences could be easily changed out as the project evolved.
SHIIFT also made use of high-quality 3D animation for key instructional sequences which meant that our team didn’t have to go to site as the plant after the initial visit as the plant became more complete. The Macedon induction was highly effective and was the first of a whole suite of inductions we produced for BHP covering onshore, offshore and office inductions.
Objective
To create an engaging induction video for the Macedon development that could be used during pre-commissioning for BHP.
Approach
SHIIFT designed a flexible, modular induction framework supported by high-quality 3D animation to reduce site visits and ensure content could evolve alongside the project.
The Problem
The Macedon Project Team needed an induction that could serve during pre-commissioning and later be adapted for ongoing operations. Traditional static inductions would have required costly rework or repeated site visits as the plant developed, creating inefficiencies and limiting flexibility.
The Solution
To meet these requirements, SHIIFT delivered a highly adaptable induction package that addressed both the immediate and long-term needs of the project:
Developed a modular induction structure, allowing sequences to be swapped out as the project advanced.
Used detailed 3D animation to demonstrate processes and safety procedures and explain the oil and gas site’s infrastructure.
Created content that supported both pre-commissioning and full operational phases.
Delivered consistent messaging across onshore, offshore, and office inductions.
Produced a scalable model that became the foundation for a wider suite of BHP inductions.
