Inspection/maintenance
This paper introduces in-pipe inspection technologies enabling high-resolution digital measurements of tubular internal diameter and wall thickness for critical downhole applications.
The deployment of a new heavy-duty robotic system aims to reduce workforce exposure to high-risk areas while improving detection of potential leaks.
This paper explores the transformative effect of unmanned aerial systems on operational efficiency, safety, and emergency response within the Khurais oil fields in Saudi Arabia. By integrating sophisticated drone technology, improvements have been achieved in routine inspections, leak detection, and emergency scenarios.
