Mining, Oil & Gas

The mining, oil and gas industry is an economic powerhouse. According to McKinsey, within the next five years, this industry is set to generate an estimated US$930B. Through utilising and leveraging IoT solutions, which have a predicted economic impact of US$3.9T – US$11T economic impact over the same time span, this industry will strengthen its stance as a formidable economic player. By adopting IoT, this industry can not only optimise its processes and equipment but provide a safer and healthier work environment for its employees.

Reduce operational interruptions and enhance efficiency by avoiding unplanned shutdowns

Our sensors can monitor and create alerting features if emergency spills happen or if there are emergency shutdowns because of spillage. This will exponentially increase the speed at which these issues can be addressed and fixed/clean-up. This means non-productive downtime (NPD) is reduced, saving the company billions in dollars and reducing damage to the surrounding environment and ecosystems.

Sensors placed on drilling equipment means that alerting features can be set to notify you if there are any drilling issues. This will send the alert to the relevant staff if there are any potential drilling errors.

Minimise downtime and improve productivity preventing emergency shutdowns

In 2022–23, there were

767

total recordable mining. injuries reported in the NSW mining industry.

With an estimated of

600000

workers exposed to silica dust,

studies found that

30%

of workers had silicosis from the exposure.

Environment Monitoring

Ensuring a Sustainable Future:
Advanced Environmental Monitoring for Responsible Mining

Monitor remote locations

With 365mesh sensors, we provide insights and analytics based on historical data. Using this information, we can predict equipment breakdowns and schedule preventative maintenance, saving time, money, and the manpower typically required for manual checks.

 

Through remote monitoring of operations, staff are kept informed and better equipped to handle any issues that arise, thanks to the real-time data they receive.

Air quality monitoring and detection of hazardous air particles

Monitor air particles such as crystalline silica dust, and automatically alerts control rooms of any abnormalities in the air.

 

Hazardous chemicals detection, monitoring, and alerts

Monitors and detects components such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, black carbon (above and underground) and alert control rooms of any abnormalities.

 

Gas monitoring

Fixed and portable gas monitors detect the presence of toxic, asphyxiant and explosive gases such as methane, hydrogen, sulfide and oxygen deficiency/enrichment.

Safeguard sustainability

Monitoring of the environment to increase staff safety. Our sensors can provide monitoring of the surrounding environment and takes into account the air quality and temperature, while also monitoring for and detecting any leakages. An alert notification will be sent if leakage occurs so that staff can evacuate before toxic levels are reached, increasing the safety and health of all staff. Environmental monitoring can also help to lower the environmental footprint generated by oil and drilling operations.

 

Designed to provide tailored recommendations, our Weather Station helps you stay ahead by delivering precise weather data essential for optimising farming operations. The Weather Station measures and monitors key parameters such as air temperature, wind speed, air pressure, humidity, rainfall, and wind direction.

 

Receive real-time weather alerts and customised spraying recommendations through the Farmdeck app. This integration ensures you have accurate data to make informed decisions.

Carbon Footprint monitoring and reporting

Monitors the air quality and greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, and nitrous oxide. Data collected assists to make educated decisions to mitigate carbon emissions.

 

Monitors high noise level environments

Monitors noise levels from activities such as boring, drilling, digging and loud machinery vehicles and vibration performance in real time.

 

Vibration monitoring and alerting

Monitors vibration performance in real time and triggers immediate alerts to prevent regulatory thresholds from being breached.

 

Ventilation units monitoring and alerts

Monitors the condition of air flow through ventilation units. Alerts are sent to authorised personnel when units are faulty or inactive.

Fuel and Effluent Tanks Monitoring

Monitor fuel tank levels in real time and receive alerts when tank levels reach a certain threshold.

 

Monitor Oil with inflow sensors to measure – dielectric, resistivity density, viscosity, temperature (to determine issues such as water ingress, cooling leaks, etc).

 

Effluent tanks solutions provide real-time monitoring of portable and drop toilets so that maintenance teams can optimise their cleaning schedules.

 

Waste management

Monitor and differentiate the type and quantity of waste generated onsite, proportions of waste, recycling vs landfill waste, and sources of waste.

 

Fridge/Freezer temperature monitoring

Monitor the temperature of mining chillers and compressed air dryers to avoid any equipment from overheating.

Our sensors can monitor the number of people in an area in real-time. This will help determine the exact number of people if evacuation is needed due to an unexpected incident, resulting in reducing the number of fatalities. By using IoT-enabled safety measures, oil and gas companies can provide their workers with a safe working environment. The companies can also benefit from lower insurance and corporate liability.
