Oil and Gas

The cost of finding oil and gas green fields is phenomenally high. New site explorations may cost up to $20 million USD or even more. And yet the site being explored may yield nothing but disappointment. Unmanned exploration machines bring the cost of upstream mining operations considerably as people do not have to operate and administer logistics far away from home. Extreme weather conditions are really challenging and can be life threatening. While OUSL drones can aid mankind in the upstream, midstream and downstream operations however most effective deployment of drones is done in upstream operations.

Upstream operations

Survey and Mapping Potential Sites: Drones can easily map large areas faster than the on-foot survey teams. Earlier the inspection teams had to walk through precarious routes in close proximity to harmful chemicals. Drones now making this need go away. They not only make inspection safer but faster as well. Drones fly directly into the inspection zone no matter how hard-to-reach the area is.

Precise Inspection with Hi Tech Equipment: OUSL drones are equipped by advance cameras. The cameras can easily zoom in to tricky corners, take images and videos seamlessly without compromising on resolution. With thermal images one can easily capture temperature parameters and chemical composition.

Early & Better Leak Detection: Methane leak is a major cause of loss to energy companies. Not only this but methane leakage is a serious threat to the fragile environment. OUSL drones are quickly replacing traditional leak detection methods that used fixed mount detectors and risky spots and inspectors using portable detectors – a costly and inefficient method.
