Oil & Gas

The Combination Of Video Cameras & AI Provides Oil & Gas Companies With Automated Monitoring For Regulatory Compliance, Cost Reduction, and Site Security

Continuous monitoring, with vision AI-powered insights with instant alerting save customers significant cost, labor, and time while facilitating immediate, accurate mitigation and remediation.

USE CASE

VOC GAS LEAK DETECTION

Challenge

Oil and gas producers are seeking immediately available technologies to meet increasing state and federal regulatory compliance requirements. Colorado, for example, has begun to enforce a recent law known as SB-181 that requires continuous methane gas leak detection. Other states, such as Utah, California, and North Dakota are enacting strict air-quality protections.

Solution

Plainsight’s AI-powered VOC leak scanning continuously monitors and detects gas emissions (notably methane) and triggers alerts for leak location and severity. Plainsight-built vision AI models detect, quantify, and map leaks, and send notifications to customers within two minutes.

USE CASE

TANK-LEVEL MONITORING

Challenge

Oil & Gas companies employ regular, manual Leak Detection And Repair (LDAR) inspections. Expanding LDAR teams and manual efforts at oil and gas facilities is expensive, inefficient and unscalable. Human walk-through inspections using handheld leak detectors are incredibly time-consuming and prone to delays and errors caused by unpredictable conditions and reporting complexities.

Solution

Automated camera-based tank-level monitoring creates a highly accurate, non-invasive remote system to enable regulatory compliance without opening the tank thief hatch. Fully integrated computer vision technology gives operators a new, highly efficient way to continuously monitor measurements, track and log data.

USE CASE

SITE SECURITY INTELLIGENCE

Challenge

Oil and gas sites are targets for acts of sabotage that can result in equipment damage and operation interruption or complete stoppage, which can take months to restart. To prevent loss, it’s vital for operators to maintain nonstop, 24/7/365 threat monitoring of the area surrounding facilities as well as sensitive restricted zones.

Solution

Video data streams provide continuous input to vision AI-powered oil and gas site surveillance for perimeter protection, sensitive zone monitoring, and threat detections, such as unauthorized vehicles, unrecognized objects, and suspicious activity. Auto-generated real-time alerts eliminate reporting delays and enable proactive investigation.
