Kakinada serves as a base for a thriving oil and gas industry for the state of Andhra Pradesh. Working in more than 85 countries, Schlumberger has a subsea base in Kakinada for a comprehensive range of products and services. Collage Design was retained to provide Architecture & Engineering Design Services for their factory which caters to the growing demand of drilling and production.
The design was effectively developed to resolve the specific needs relevant to the nature of Schlumberger’s work. The key area to be addressed was an optimum design solution to enhance the Factory Shade and facilities for the staff. The Shade uses design principles that are functionally efficient and allow ease of construction, maintenance and efficiency. It provides an optimum Workshop with ultra-modern standards. Careful consideration has been given to the circulation areas of the building to retain a sense of shelter and security. The design also incorporates a Maintenance Area and Workshop, Service Station, onsite Parking facility, along with a dedicated Office area and Canteen for the employees. Large Span Steel Frame Structure for the roof of the workshop as well as office building is well insulated for weather protection. The Office Building has adequate natural light and ventilation and has a Conference Room, Cabins and Meetings rooms. The architectural design adheres to the principles of Environmental Sustainability with a minimal ecological footprint.
