Oil & gas drone services Drone inspections and surveys of oil & gas assets are safer and more cost-efficient than traditional methods.

Uninterrupted operations, safer inspections

Drones make oil and gas inspections safer, faster, and more cost-effective. We capture accurate data without risking crew safety or halting operations. Using advanced sensors, we help you detect faults or inefficiencies early, without costly downtime.

Details from a Safe Distance

Our drones can capture the minute details of any object, without having to touch or even get close to it. Objects that once had to be shut down, climbed and traversed can now be inspected and monitored in real time more quickly, and with zero risk to personnel.

Remote Monitoring

The use of drone 3D modelling technologies gives you the opportunity to inspect a digital twin of a oil and gas asset from the comfort of your office. This detailed replica can be inspected at a minute level, allowing you to make a record of any areas that are in need of attention. Issues such as poorly executed repairs, general damage and other potential weaknesses can be shared with your employees, suppliers and other shareholders at the click of a button.

Locate Irregularities

Drones equipped with thermal imaging cameras allow you to accurately assess the condition of a oil and gas asset. Infrared photographs can be used to detect extreme temperature differences that can locate otherwise unseen issues, such as concealed moisture damage and heat leakage.

Access Hard-To-Reach Areas

The use of specialist impact-resistance technology deployed with our drones allows us to access areas that are otherwise too hazardous or difficult to reach. Get instant data from confined spaces without the time-consuming, labour-intensive and costly methods of the past, and with zero risk to personnel.

Reduce/Negate Asset Downtime

Drone inspections do not need scaffolding, equipment and other structures to be erected. This leads to less downtime and higher productivity. Complying with appropriate health and safety regulations without sacrificing production time, allows for significant financial savings.

Why use a drone for your oil and gas inspection?

Safety

The safety of your personnel and our own is paramount, and we place it at the forefront of our company culture. Ask us about our HSSE systems and practices.

No traffic disruption

Downtime is expensive, unpopular and inconvenient. Using a drone, our engineers can conduct a thorough survey with little to no downtime.

No scaffolding or ropes

Drone technology is cheaper, safer and more reliable than traditional methods such as scaffolding, cherry-pickers and ropes. It's also quicker and less labour-intensive. We will bring everything we need and be out of your way that same day.

Detect hidden problems

We use cutting-edge technologies to detect problems that would otherwise be invisible. These include 4K ultra-HD photography/video, LIDAR and thermal imaging.

Hard-to-reach spaces

Drones aren't just for flying up in the sky. Our specialist drones can fly into confined spaces like chimneys and boilers to look for issues that would otherwise be inaccessible.

Quick turnaround

We understand that you need answers fast. We can deliver a plain-English report with clear-cut conclusions in days. Then, you can take the steps you need to and get back to doing what you do best.

Rapid response

Need us there in a hurry? No problem. Let us know what you need, and we can be there on the same day. After all, sometimes the problem just won't wait.

Real-time consulting

Sometimes the brief can change even in real-time. If need be, you can be stood there right next to the drone operator, directing them as the situation develops.

Comprehensive inspections of all oil & gas infrastructure

We inspect oil rigs, pump stations, refineries and other critical infrastructure, both onshore and offshore, without interrupting operations. Our drones capture detailed, up-to-date visuals safely and efficiently. Every inspection is carried out by experienced UAV operators who focus on accuracy, safety and clear reporting.

Efficiency through all stages of operation

Traditional inspection methods in oil and gas are often slow, risky and resource-heavy. Even routine checks can involve hazards and long delays. Our drones give you full visual coverage, from under platforms to inside confined spaces and hard-to-reach areas. This saves time not just on-site, but in planning and coordination too.
