RC DroneHub general purpose
The industrial sector is increasingly adopting unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for inspecting oil and energy infrastructure, revolutionizing the process by making it faster, safer, and more cost-effective.
Services using Drones for security, data collection, leakage and fault detection, continuous 24/7 remote inspection of facilities: refineries, pipelines, oil and gas wells on onshore and offshore, oil terminals, sea and river ports, railway tracks, wind and solar power plants, etc.
- UAV identifies threats and suspicious quickly thanks to advanced sensors and cameras. This allows us to keep safety on the highest levell;
- Reduction of hazardous working hours;
- Better quality of investigations;
- 50 percent reduction in inspection costs;
- Cost reduction. Gathering critical data costs less than traditional inspecting methods (ground crew or helicopters);
- Increased safety of workers. Drone inspection allows people to not be exposed to many dangerous operations;
- With a wide range of cameras and sensors, drones can collect various data critical for the industry. DroneHub enables us to collect data in real-time, but also for later verification;
- Thanks to AI solutions the data stored in the drone could be reviewed for analysis and work optimization to make better, data-driven decisions;
- Drones reduce the working hours involved in investigations as the process involves just a few people rather than the whole inspection team.
Our state-of-the-art drones capture high-resolution images and videos, enabling early detection of issues such as leaks or cracks that could lead to environmental disasters, explosions or service interruptions.
According to research, a 1% leak in a 20-inch pipeline can result in the loss of 450,000 barrels of oil per year and cause irreparable damage to an area of up to 10 square kilometres. It is therefore extremely important to ensure the proper reliability and quality of pipelines at the site of operation. The use of drones can increase the eDiciency of pipeline inspections by 80%.
Watch our video to learn how drones are changing the approach to inspections, providing speed, accuracy and safety, especially in hard-to-reach places. Explore the latest drone technologies, from dual cameras to AI-powered automation, and discover how RC DroneHub can take pipeline inspections to the next level.
First and foremost, these include:
- permanent monitoring of pipeline networks, including in areas with complex terrain and in hard-to-reach areas;
- detection of pipeline leaks and breaks, as well as unauthorised tapping by third parties;
- preventing accidents and environmental disasters;
- identifying sections of oil pipelines that need repair;
- detecting all kinds of changes in the landscape, flooding or ground subsidence that threaten the integrity and normal operation of pipelines.
