Our unique satellite constellation, combined with over 30 years’ experience in Intelligence, make us the perfect partner for oil, gas and mining organisations. We provide a range of precise and cost-effective monitoring services for every stage of the project lifecycle.
Airbus’ RefineryScanner combines weekly refreshed satellite imagery with advanced analytics to indicate refinery shutdowns up to six weeks ahead of the market, as well as drawing implications on crude capacity.
RefineryScanner enables users to:
RefineryScanner in numbers:
Timely: Better predict refinery shutdowns up to 6 weeks before occurrence thanks to accurate activity-monitoring algorithms
Unit-level: More detailed identification of specific refining units that will undergo maintenance
Actionable: Better quantify the impact of shutdowns on regional crude demand and refined product supply
Unbiased: Trade with more confidence by using a dataset independent of market rumours
Stack Insight facilitates volume calculations and change detection, allowing operators to monitor their mines without sending people into the field.
This Monitoring service delivers volume measurement reports as well as change analysis over mines within 3 days after acquisition. Mainly used for the mining industry, this could be used for any type of stacks (paper, earth, minerals, wood, etc.).
Combination of Two Offers:
Accurate: Satellite-based calculation service with reliable coverage of any area worldwide with up to daily revisit capabilities
Cost-efficient: Reduced costs due to the remote nature of the service and automated data analysis
Accessible: Flexible access to the service from any location with an internet access
Safe: No need to send people on the ground (even in remote areas) and no hardware required on site
Surface Movement Monitoring (SMM) provides measurements of ground surface movement (uplift or subsidence) with millimetre precision and high resolution from space. Our service supports you to ensure the security or effective performance of your project or activities. Input data from radar satellites such as TerraSAR-X, PAZ and Sentinel-1 are utilised. We provide individual baseline studies as well as long term monitoring requests and updated studies (for e.g. along multi-year oil and gas production or larger construction projects).
Access your results online via the SMM GeoView portal.
Burgan is an oil field in Kuwait, the second largest worldwide. The extraction of oil from the ground during production causes reservoirs to compact and the surface to subside (here with a rate of up to 1.2 cm/year).
SMM GeoView is an online Viewer for surface movement measurement results. Individual user accounts allow for user specific visualisation of measurement results. The Portal provides interactive GIS functionalities and full access to the complete measurement time series.
For a demonstration access log in via the button below:
Precise:
Measurement in millimetre range
Flexible:
High revisit frequency of TerraSAR-X / PAZ constellation allows monitoring of dynamic processes
Valuable:
Large coverage and high density of measurement points allows analysis of spatially complex and small-scaled phenomena
Efficient:
Remotely sensed input data from space minimising costs and risk for on-site staff
Global Seeps is the World’s leading offshore oil seepage information product for the oil exploration industry. Global Seeps is a non-exclusive database of offshore oil slicks, constructed by systematically screening the world’s offshore basins using both archive and newly programmed radar satellite imagery.
Oil seep information is valuable to oil exploration companies for the detection and monitoring of natural seepage and oil pollution on the ocean’s surface. It is a cost-effective resource for risk-ranking new exploration regions and for baseline oil pollution mapping.
Accurate: High-resolution radar data ensures all slicks are captured
Cost-effective: Risk ranking tool prior to new exploration
Complete: From slick characterisation identifying natural seepage and man-made pollution, to the slick interpretation results
Scalable and future proof: Continuously updated with new data and new areas
Our geologists offer a comprehensive range of onshore geological mapping services to the Oil, Gas and Mining industries, including structural and lithological interpretation and detailed fracture analysis utilising various sources of satellite imagery and Digital Elevation Models.
Geological interpretation can be performed at a range of scales, from regional down to prospect scale or individual structure.
Cost-effective geological mapping for regional to prospect exploration
Consistent high scale surface geological mapping covering large regional areas
