O &amp; G companies have already initiated investments in the research and development of spatial digital twins to build digital mining models. Existing studies commonly adopt surveys and case studies as their evaluation approach to validate the feasibility of spatial digital twins and related technologies. However, this approach requires high costs and resources. To address this gap, this study explores the feasibility of the informed argument method within the design science framework. A land survey data model (LSDM)-based digital twin prototype for O &amp; G field design, along with 3D spatial datasets located in Lot 2 on RP108045 at petroleum lease 229 under the Department of Resources, Queensland Government, Australia, was selected as a case for this study. The ISO\/IEC 25010 model was adopted as a methodology for this study to evaluate the prototype and Digital Twin Victoria (DTV). It encompasses eight metrics, such as functional suitability, performance efficiency, compatibility, usability, security, reliability, maintainability, and portability. The results generated from this study indicate that the prototype encompasses a standard level of all parameters in the ISO\/IEC 25010 model. The key significance of the study is its methodological contribution to evaluating the spatial digital twin models through cost-effective means, particularly under circumstances with strict regulatory requirements and low information accessibility.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijgi14080294","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,28]],"date-time":"2025-07-28T14:05:47Z","timestamp":1753711547000},"page":"294","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Assessing Spatial Digital Twins for Oil and Gas Projects: An Informed Argument Approach Using ISO\/IEC 25010 Model"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Sijan","family":"Bhandari","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Surveying and Built Environment, Toowoomba Campus, University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba, QLD 4350, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1010-2118","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dev Raj","family":"Paudyal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Surveying and Built Environment, Toowoomba Campus, University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba, QLD 4350, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"100256","DOI":"10.1016\/j.hybadv.2024.100256","article-title":"Digital Transformation and Trends for Tapping Connectivity in the Oil and Gas sector","volume":"6","author":"Bist","year":"2024","journal-title":"Hybrid Adv."},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Mahmood, Y., Afrin, T., Huang, Y., and Yodo, N.
