Traditional challenges in managing service facilities and equipment

• Operations often have to be stopped to fix problems in the facility or conduct inspections, which would result in a loss in value.
• Torches, oil tanks and cooling towers are dangerous sites for inspection personnel.
• Long hours of work are required to cover the larger sites. Limitations in handheld instruments, data collection may be incomplete.

How drones improve facility management

• Employ drones to inspect complex structures while keeping operations running, addressing problems with minimal loss of value.
• Get a complete overview of the entire site, including all parts of the facilities above, without risking the lives of staff.
• Digitize inspection results for coordinated response, data logging and optimized project management.

• Personnel could be exposed to toxic gases during a leak investigation. Traditional tools are unable to identify the full extent of the loss.
• Operations often have to be stopped to fix problems in the facility or conduct inspections, which would result in a loss in value.
• Specialized detection equipment is expensive and difficult to maneuver and use.

How drones help with LDAR

• Cover large areas with just a few drone flights to efficiently test for leaks and determine the extent of the leak.
• Significantly reduce the cost of procuring detection equipment by using agile gas detectors for payloads on drones.
• Digitized live streams of detection progress help teams visualize the leak and take quick action to fix it.

Traditional challenges in maintaining safety and security

• Incidents are often extremely dangerous, response teams may not be able to be on site immediately due to a lack of an overview of the situation.
• Fixed security cameras and staff patrols could leave undetected areas of the site, while frequent dispatch of patrol teams could be costly.
• Intruders and illegally deployed drones could go unnoticed using traditional methods.

How drones maintain safety and security

• It employs drones to get an immediate overview of the site, providing real-time feed-back to the command center, allowing response teams to manage the emergency safely and efficiently.
• Patrols equipped with drones provide complete coverage of the site, improving inspection efficiency and economy.
• Detect intruding drones and assist with police investigations using Aeroscope.

Traditional challenges in asset digitization

• The lack of visual data and accurate asset models makes it difficult to automate inspection and maintenance.
• Traditional inspection reports may involve multiple teams, so they are difficult to compile and view digitally.
• Site inspection and survey data are considered sensitive information that must be stored locally in compliance with specific data security requirements.

How drones digitize resources

• Significantly reduce operating costs by creating 2D and 3D models to digitize assets, enabling automated site management and maintenance.
• Deploy drones to reduce or eliminate people entering hazardous spaces.
• Prevent risks and improve efficiency by viewing inspection results while storing data locally.
