Reducing risks with drone inspection
The number of projects ALTRAD SERVICES Benelux undertakes in hard-to-reach and dangerous places cannot be underestimated. Every day, employees are exposed to risks and we are all responsible for managing them. Our Special Services department is therefore constantly looking for innovations to reduce the risks involved in these assignments.
Innovation as risk mitigation
Recently, we have been able to introduce drone inspection to our customers.
Innovation with robotics is a means of reducing risks and also often increasing efficiency.
- Reducing working in confined spaces
- Minimising working at high altitudes
- Maximising the safety aspect
- Reducing customer downtime
Advantages
- Fully automated data capture process. Inspection data collected by the drone is shared through a cloud-based 3D model of the inspected object, which the customer can access.
- No human risk: there is no need to work at high altitude for every inspection.
- Increasing efficiency: downtime is significantly reduced when using drones during inspections. Data collection improves both qualitatively and quantitatively.
Applications
- Inspections in confined spaces, such as storage tanks.
- For oil and gas sector, food industry, energy and chemical sector.
- Measurement of wall thicknesses by drones.
- Visual and thermal inspections, coating thickness.
- Vertical & diagonal walls, roof plates & floating roofs.
- Tank floors, different types of profiles and pipes.
The inspection report complies with international standards such as API-653 and EEMUA-159.
