3D animation company in Houston
Myriad’s Houston office makes 3D animation, engineering visualisation and film for energy companies across Texas, Louisiana and the Gulf Coast. We’ve worked for Sempra Infrastructure, Golden Pass LNG, Energy Transfer, ExxonMobil, Baker Hughes and Halliburton, on LNG terminals, drilling technology, petrochemicals and community safety.

The problem
Houston is where much of the world’s energy work is planned, financed and sold: LNG export terminals on the Gulf Coast, drilling and completions technology, petrochemicals and the pipelines between them.
Most of it is hard to show. The plant isn’t built yet, the technology works out of sight, and the audience is spread across investors, regulators, buyers and communities who each need a different explanation.
Working from Houston means reviews, site visits and filming happen in your time zone.
How we help
We build 3D models from your engineering data, CAD and BIM files from Navisworks, Revit and most other engineering software, or plans and elevations, then combine them with drone and ground filming on site. The result shows the project as it will be, in the place it will stand.
From one model we produce what each audience needs: an animation for permits and public meetings, an investor or launch film, recruitment films for the workforce, and interactive versions for Gastech and other events.
What it can involve
LNG and Gulf Coast project animation.
Export terminals shown before construction, for permits, investors and communities.
Technology and equipment animation.
Drilling, completions and modular systems explained for buyers.
Recruitment and workforce films.
Films that bring skilled workers to large projects.
Community and safety films.
Public safety films that tell residents what to do and when.
Interactive exhibits.
Touchscreen models that let visitors explore a plant at Gastech.
Live events.
Project kick-offs and events, such as GCGV’s with the Apollo 13 crew.
Houston and Gulf Coast projects we’ve worked on
Port Arthur LNG, Sempra Infrastructure.
The Texas facility shown in 3D before construction began.
Golden Pass LNG.
An award-winning film with 3D and drone footage to recruit skilled workers for the $10 billion export project.
Lake Charles LNG, Energy Transfer.
A 3D animation showing how the proposed Louisiana plant will liquefy US gas for export.
Commonwealth LNG.
Drone filming, 4K renders and animation to set a planned Gulf Coast terminal apart.
Methanex, Geismar 3.
Onboarding and progress films with 3D for a Louisiana methanol plant’s site team and investors.
Baker Hughes NMBL.
A cinematic 3D launch film for the NMBL modular LNG solution at Gastech 2025.
Halliburton E-CD.
An animation taking potential clients from the big picture to the equipment in place.
ExxonMobil, Baytown 100.
A hundred years of one site, in one film.
Chambers County LEPC, Shelter in Place.
A public safety animation so residents know what to do when the siren sounds.

Common questions
Do you have a team in Houston?
+
Yes. Our Houston office is at 950 Echo Lane, Suite 200, Houston, TX 77024. We work on projects across Texas, Louisiana and the wider Gulf Coast, and across the US.
What do you make for Houston energy companies?
+
3D animation and engineering visualisation, LNG and project films, drone filming, interactive and VR experiences, safety films and live events. Most projects combine several of these.
Can you film on site on the Gulf Coast?
+
Yes. We’ve filmed and flown drones at LNG, petrochemical and methanol sites in Texas and Louisiana, including Golden Pass, Lake Charles and Geismar.
What does a 3D animation cost?
+
Most of our 3D animations cost between $25,000 and $100,000. The price depends on the length, the level of detail, the complexity of the asset and whether we build the model from plans or work from your CAD files. We’ll quote once we’ve seen the scope and your engineering data.
How long does a 3D animation take?
+
It depends on the scope and the state of your engineering data. A single animation of one facility usually takes a few weeks; a full project film takes longer. We’ll give you a schedule once we’ve seen the data.
Do you only work in Houston?
+
No. We also have offices in Abu Dhabi and London, so one team can support projects in the US and overseas.
