Final day of the Pipeline Technology Conference

Yesterday we presented the results of two operational deployments of CoSMiC-EYE, one in the Netherlands and one in Trinidad and Tobago! Thanks to the audience for attending and the interesting questions. ⁩Today there is a final chance to meet us at the conference in Berlin and learn about our sustainable satellite-based solution for pipeline RoW […]

Orbital Eye in Berlin!

And we’re there! On the way to the Pipeline Technology Conference (PTC) 2022 at the Estrel Berlin, Alexander Blauw and Arnaud van den Berg already encountered the first pipelines. Looking forward to meeting old contacts and new people at the PTC!

Orbital Eye in the Pipeline Technology Conference (ptc) 2022

In less than a week the Pipeline Technology Conference (ptc) 2022 will already start! We are looking forward to visiting Berlin and meeting experts in the pipeline industry. Next week Wednesday the 9th, at 9 am, Alexander Blauw and Arnaud van den Berg will give a presentation in which they will present the results of […]

TPI Tuesday – Tree removal detected

In today’s TPI Tuesday, we present a case where a large agricultural activity took place, and many trees and bushes were removed. This type of activity often poses a threat to the pipelines due to the use of excavators, and because it can lead to soil erosion, and hence pipeline operators should be aware of […]

TPI Tuesday – Construction Works Detected

The initial start of construction works is highlighted at the location of today’s TPI Tuesday. This location was detected during the winter months in the Netherlands, which isn’t known for the bright sunny days. 🌦 The image on the left shows the detection of the activity using the Sentinel-1 satellites on a very cloudy day. […]

Special TPI Valentine Edition : Love is in the Air!

Satellite based services such as COSMIC-EYE do not only detect the activities that can pose a threat to the pipelines, but a few more ‘special’ cases that may surprise you! In today’s special edition TPI – Valentine Monday, you can see a heart appear in a high-resolution image. Who could have guessed that Monitoring Services […]

Monitoring environmental crime from space!

In the Netherlands, a lot of ground-moving actions happen daily, of which some involve contaminated soil. The National Police Politie Nederland and the Human Environment and Transport Inspectorate Inspectie Leefomgeving en Transport are tracking down and enforcing environmental crimes but this is a time-consuming and difficult task. Science [&] Technology, Orbital Eye B.V., Sobolt, and […]

TPI Tuesday – Preparation of Construction Site Detected

A key component of any Right-of-Way monitoring solution is the early warning functionality, so pipeline operators can respond and interfere as soon as an activity takes place. Today’s TPI-Tuesday shows how the Sentinel-1 radar satellites were able to detect the initial preparation of a construction site before the actual works had started. The CoSMiC-EYE system […]

TPI Tuesday – Groundworks Detected

Today’s TPI-Tuesday shows a clear example of the creation of a construction site that involves ground works. If not reported to the pipeline operator and handled with great care, these ground works can be dangerous to the pipeline. It is thus key that the operator knows about the activity in a timely manner. The radar […]
