Oil & Gas Capabilities
Advanced satellite imagery solutions for comprehensive oil and gas facility management and environmental monitoring.
Crude Oil Stockpile Estimation
With ultra-high-resolution imagery from KOMPSAT, clients can estimate oil volumes in storage tanks by analyzing the shadows cast inside and around open-top tanks. By monitoring the same oil storage facilities over time, it's possible to detect fluctuations in oil levels and evaluate stockpile trends.
This enables predictive analysis of crude oil supply, demand, and pricing. A Silicon Valley-based company used this technique to deliver highly accurate oil reserve assessments, garnering interest from global financial markets and energy analysts.
Shadow Analysis
Analyze shadows within and around storage tanks
Trend Analysis
Monitor fluctuations in oil levels over time
Predictive Analysis
Enable supply, demand, and pricing predictions
Facility Siting, Construction & Environmental Monitoring
Satellite imagery from KOMPSAT offers a powerful solution for identifying ideal locations for oil and gas infrastructure through detailed topographic and land-use analysis. The same imagery also supports environmental compliance by detecting pollution such as waste discharge from industrial facilities into nearby rivers.
Regular image acquisition from the same vantage point allows users to:
- Track the expansion or reduction of refineries and associated infrastructure
- Generate operational metrics like construction rates of crude oil tanks
- Monitor construction timelines and facility health
- Detect and localize maintenance issues early to support timely intervention
Together, KOMPSAT provides a reliable and timely data stream for decision-makers across the oil, gas, and petrochemical sectors, whether in Africa or anywhere in the world.
