位于LIVINGSTON,蘇格蘭的Cyber??hawk Innovations公司,是一家在使用無人機進行空中檢查方面的引領者,它剛剛在卡塔爾完成了有史以來的首次商業石油和天然氣的檢查作業。
在整個卡塔爾市場,這提供了Cyberhawk無人機檢查服務帶來的重大成本效益的范例,而在這段時間里石油和天然氣的預算面臨顯著的壓力。
曾經進行過136米高廢氣燃燒器的檢查,仍然在運作中的這個項目于2016年的三月份在陸上石油和天然氣煉廠建成。來自Cyber??hawk經驗豐富的一支隊伍中的兩名成員利用Cyber??hawk最先進的無人機開展了檢查工作,其中包括一名業內合格的檢驗工程師,和一名油氣行業合格的檢驗飛行員。
由于對空域安全和公民隱私的擔憂,迄今為止一直由卡塔爾政府嚴格管制無人駕駛飛機。而這次檢查標志著無人機在區域商業用途方面向前邁進了一大步。
Cyber??hawk開展了大量的活動,對政府進行游說并向其表達了無人機所能帶來的的福利利益,包括成本費用和時間方面的節省,以及這些無人機能安全地通過有經驗的操作人員進行操作。
在綜合評價了Cyber??hawk的業績記錄和在中東成熟的案例研究史后??,政府當局小組授予了Cyber??hawk在卡塔爾進行作業的獨家許可證。
該項目還繼續打造Cyber??hawk在中東日益增長的客戶群,在中東它自從2012年已經開始商業化運營。該公司在沙特阿拉伯、阿布扎比、迪拜和阿曼公司已經檢測了75個多的廢氣燃燒器等其他油氣構造。
“繼該項目的順利完成,我們預計在該區域中將會有更多的機會,并且我們將繼續支持和建議當局以拓寬商業無人機使用的范圍,”業務發展經理Ajay Sethi,Cyber??hawk的阿布扎比辦公室負責人表示說。

LIVINGSTON, Scotland — Cyberhawk Innovations, a leader in aerial inspection and survey using unmanned aerial vehicles, has completed the first ever commercial oil and gas inspection in Qatar.
This allows the significant cost benefits of Cyberhawk’s drone inspection service to be provided throughout the Qatari market, during a time in which oil and gas budgets are facing significant pressure.
The project, which saw the inspection of 136-m high flares, while still operational, was completed at an onshore oil and gas refinery in March 2016. An experienced team of two from Cyberhawk, including an industry qualified inspection engineer and oil and gas qualified inspection pilot, undertook the work using Cyberhawk’s state-of-the-art inspection UAVs.
This inspection marks a major step forward in the commercial use of drones in the region, which to date have been heavily regulated by the Qatari government due to concerns over security of airspace and privacy of citizens.
Cyberhawk undertook an intensive campaign, lobbying the government to explain the benefits on offer through UAVs, including significant cost and time savings, and how safely these unmanned aircraft can be operated by experienced operators.
After a thorough assessment of Cyberhawk’s track record and proven case study history in the Middle East, a panel of authorities granted an exclusive permit for Cyberhawk to conduct the work in Qatar.
This project also continues to build Cyberhawk’s growing client base in the Middle East, where it have been commercially operating since 2012. The company has already inspected more than 75 live flares and other oil and gas structures in Saudi Arabia, Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Oman.
“Following the successful completion of this project, we anticipate further opportunities will be created in the region, and will continue to support and advise authorities to help extend the boundaries of commercial drone usage,” Business Development Manager Ajay Sethi, who is based in Cyberhawk’s Abu Dhabi office, said.
