Applications
- 11.1.1 Upstream Asset Monitoring — Persistent multi-sensor surveillance of wellheads, drilling rigs, production platforms and associated surface infrastructure to track activity, detect anomalies and verify reported output.
- 11.1.2 Inventory & Storage Tracking — Estimating crude oil and refined product volumes held in above-ground storage tanks by measuring floating-roof shadow displacement and tank fill-level geometry from satellite optical imagery.
- 11.1.3 Refinery Throughput Estimation — Inferring crude processing rates at domestic and foreign refineries by fusing satellite thermal infrared, optical and SAR observations of operational signatures.
- 11.1.4 Flaring Detection — Detecting, quantifying and attributing gas flares at oil and gas facilities using shortwave-infrared and thermal satellite payloads to enforce environmental compliance and expose unreported combustion.
- 11.1.5 Pipeline Integrity Surveillance — Detecting ground deformation, methane leaks, encroachment and third-party interference along national pipeline corridors using multi-sensor satellite tasking.
