Robotic solutions are not applicable to
complex and confined environments
98% of the cost is attributed to HSE & preparation.
- Shell

THE RESULT
24
TIME SAVING Complete inner roof inspection performed in 4 hours (1 hour of flight) when it would take days to build the proper scaffolding to do it with humans. No extensive HSE procedures required.
SAFETY IMPROVEMENT No need for man entry in a dangerous confined space.
COST SAVINGSHalf a day with 1 drone operator and 1 site expert. Typical saving can go up to USD 200K when a complete scaffold is required.

INTEGRATION IN YOUR WORKFLOW
• Integration into day to day operations is critical
• Both top down and bottom up approach within organizations
• SOP, risk assessments, safety management
• Aviation limitations / Air traffic regulation
• Data Management
