Drones are transforming inspections in the energy and industrial sectors.

Safety

In the energy and industrial sector, there are numerous risky situations where employees are exposed to working at heights, extreme temperatures, hazardous substances, and other dangerous conditions. Drones can be deployed in hard-to-reach, confined, and/or hazardous locations. This enhances the safety of people, machines, and the environment. By reducing physical contact with potentially dangerous equipment and environments, the use of drones significantly decreases the likelihood of accidents and injuries. Drones are flexible and dynamically deployable, enabling real-time monitoring. Additionally, a drone can be quickly deployed in the event of an emergency or incident. By using drones, companies can protect their employees and prevent accidents and injuries. Safety is, after all, a priority, and drones can help ensure this safety without the need for physical intervention..

Efficiency and savings

Drones can perform an inspection or analysis in a fraction of the time compared to traditional methods. This significantly reduces inspection time and ensures that problems can be identified and detected more quickly. For high-altitude inspections, costly and time-consuming resources are often required, such as setting up scaffolding, deploying helicopters, or closing off an area. With drones, companies can save significantly on labour costs and equipment. Moreover, drones can complete a full scan or analysis within minutes, which increases operational efficiency and reduces downtime of installations..

Accessibility

Due to the increasing autonomy of drones, the complexity of control is removed, allowing drones to be easily operated and monitored from a central point. This requires minimal knowledge of how drones work and a minimal required training time.
Drones are dynamic and can easily capture images of hard-to-reach places or carry out measurements. Drones can be deployed at a very high frequency and 24/7.
