中国石化新闻网讯 据烃加工在线9月7日消息称，据GlobalData报道，由于无人机在价值链上的可用性不断提高，以提高运营效率，无人机正成为石油和天然气行业不可或缺的一部分。 该公司最新的主题报告《石油和天然气中的无人机——专题研究》指出，石油和天然气行业采用无人机最初是用于战略部署，比如在常规作业期间远程监控和监视资产，以及紧急情况。 该报告强调，最近传感和成像技术的进步使无人机能够部署在广泛的环境中，对关键基础设施进行预测维护。无人机制造商还与石油和天然气公司合作，开发定制的无人机平台，可以配备不同类型的数据收集技术，以获得实时监测数据。无人机行业利用传感器、云计算和物联网(IoT)向数字化转型的稳步过渡，为无人机的使用提供了额外的动力。硬件成本的下降和政府监管的放松进一步推动了这一增长。 GlobalData的石油和天然气分析师Ravindra Puranik评论道：“无人机技术易于部署，这使它们相对于传统飞机具有优势，因为它们的旋翼被配置成紧凑的几何形状，可以在固定地点盘旋，收集数据。他们的设计允许他们调查各种各样的设施，包括石油和天然气平台、加工厂、管道和炼油设备。自然，无人机正成为石油和天然气业务必不可少的工具。” 随着无人机在石油和天然气行业的使用不断增加，由于技术故障或无人机操作员的判断失误，无人机相关事故的可能性也在增加。然而，为了避免这类事件，油田服务领域正在出现一套专门针对无人驾驶飞机的新专门知识，这将使服务提供者能够最佳地利用无人驾驶飞机为其客户收集有关数据。 GlobalData的专题研究确定了石油和天然气公司，如BP、雪佛龙公司、康菲石油公司，Equinor公司、埃克森美孚公司、俄罗斯天然气工业股份公司和壳牌公司，这些公司在石油和天然气业务中采用无人机构想方面处于领先地位。DJI、PrecisionHawk和AeroVironment都是无人机技术和服务提供商，为油气行业做出了贡献。 曹海斌 摘译自 烃加工在线 原文如下： Drones taking on important roles in oil and gas operations Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), or drones, are becoming integral to the oil and gas industry due to their increasing usability across the value chain to drive operational efficiency, reports GlobalData. The company’s latest thematic report, ‘Drones in Oil & Gas – Thematic Research’, states that drone adoption in the oil and gas industry was initially used for strategic deployments such as remote monitoring and surveillance of assets during regular operations, as well as emergency situations. The report highlights that recent advancements in sensing and imaging technologies are enabling drones to be deployed in a wide range of settings to carry out predictive maintenance of critical infrastructure. Drone manufacturers are also collaborating with oil and gas companies to develop custom drone platforms that can be equipped with different types of data collection technologies for obtaining real-time insights. The industry’s steady transition towards digital transformation using sensors, cloud computing and the Internet of Things (IoT) is providing an added impetus to drone usage. This is bolstered further by falling hardware costs and easing government regulations. Ravindra Puranik, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments: “Drone technologies are easy to deploy, giving them an edge over conventional aircraft as their rotors are configured for operating in compact geometries and hovering at fixed spots to collect data. Their design allows them to survey a variety of installations, including oil and gas platforms, processing plants, pipelines and refining units. Naturally, drones are becoming essential for oil and gas operations.” As drone use is increasing in the oil and gas industry, it heightens the possibility of drone-related accidents either due to technical malfunctions or bad judgment from drone operators. However, to avoid such incidents, a new set of expertise is emerging within the oilfield services space, dedicated specifically to pilot drones, which will enable service providers to make optimum usage of drones to gather relevant data for their customers. GlobalData’s thematic research identifies oil and gas companies, such as BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Equinor, ExxonMobil, Gazprom, and Shell as the leading players in the adoption of drone theme in their oil and gas operations. DJI, PrecisionHawk, and AeroVironment are among the drone technology and service providers contributing to the oil and gas industry.
