Aerial Equipment Inspection for Oil and Gas Using Drones
Conducting pipeline wall thickness measurement and infrared diagnosis without scaffolding.
In the oil and gas industry, the safe maintenance and management of plant equipment and pipelines is required. Particularly, equipment located in high places or hazardous areas presents significant challenges for ensuring safety during inspection work. Inspections in areas that are difficult for personnel to access involve risks of falls and exposure to chemicals, making the safety of workers the top priority. Additionally, stopping equipment for inspections must minimize the impact on production. Our drone-based inspections of high-altitude equipment provide a safe and efficient solution to these challenges. 【Use Cases】 - Measuring the wall thickness of pipelines at high altitudes - Diagnosing equipment temperature using infrared cameras - Inspecting equipment in areas that are difficult for personnel to access - Routine safety checks of plant equipment 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Significant reduction in costs and time for scaffolding installation (over 90% reduction in preparation time) - Reduced risk of falls and accidents - High-precision wall thickness measurements even over paint - Improved reliability of measurement data (waveform data storage) - Achieving inspection operations with minimal impact on production

Applications/Examples of results
Outdoor Applications - Taking photos and videos to create 2D and 3D models for managing progress in construction and civil engineering. - Quickly collecting accurate data with geotags to inspect and survey photogrammetry, concrete cracks, and rust on steel materials. - Spraying pesticides and fertilizers on vast rice fields and farms. By combining drones with satellite images, it enhances productivity. It allows for checking the unevenness of soil fertility and growth, enabling targeted fertilizer application to reduce costs and increase yield. - Security and inspection through autonomous driving. Indoor Applications - Inspection and survey of high places and confined spaces (chimneys, boilers, incinerators). - Inspection and survey of hazardous environments (sewers, underground channels) where workers are at risk due to oxygen deficiency, odors, or organic solvents.
