The Challenge
Oil and gas drilling infrastructure generally requires manual, calendar-based inspections and frequent scrutiny by workers to detect insecure objects and changes to the structural parts of a rig and equipment.
This challenge, set in conjunction with Odfjell Drilling sought innovative solutions using computer vision and image processing to analyse drilling sites’ existing closed-circuit camera network to enable operators to detect significant changes to an oil drilling rig infrastructure that could result in falling objects injuring workers and damaging the asset.
