We are happy to announce that Orbital Eye is making an impact since 12 years! And to celebrate this special milestone, we took the entire Orbital Eye team on a team weekend to the Ardennes in Belgium.

Our team weekend was filled with exciting activities that brought us even closer together and created lasting memories. We are incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved so far and the continued growth of our team.

Our exciting journey has enabled us to provide our satellite-based monitoring solution to customers all over the world, as we keep expanding. Who would have thought, 12 years ago, that we would have such a significant impact today? We did!

Last month, Orbital Eye visited the Pipeline Technology Conference (ptc) in Berlin. At the conference, they presented together with Gasunie how Orbital Eye’s satellite-based RoW monitoring solution was deployed to three locations of Gasunie’s network in the Netherlands as a monitoring method, and how COSMIC-EYE performed compared to other monitoring methods.

You can take a look at the conference paper here:

Today at PTC in Berlin, we co-presented with Gasunie and showcased the advantages of COSMIC-EYE, a unique approach to pipeline monitoring using satellite data. This innovative solution delivers increased efficiency, enhanced safety, and valuable cost savings.

COSMIC-EYE offers a safe and affordable way to keep pipelines secure. Using earth observation technology, it provides detailed and complete monitoring, greatly improving pipeline safety.

We presented a comprehensive breakdown of COSMIC-EYE technology and its advantages, a real-world case study showcasing COSMIC-EYE’s value to Gasunie, and Gasunie’s perspective on the future of pipeline safety.

We are proud to announce that we have acquired an investment of €2 million through a funding round led by S[&]T Ventures. This was in cooperation with the Netherlands Enterprise Agency and Ministerie van Economische Zaken, through the InnovatieKrediet instrument.

As Sven van Haver, Orbital Eye’s CEO, puts it: “This funding is key in scaling our technology and staying the technology leader in our market. It allows us to further exploit Artificial Intelligence to maintain our top-notch monitoring performance while further automating our satellite-based monitoring solutions. Thus, enabling us to serve any customer in the market, regardless of their network size, with the same high quality that we are known for.”

Thanks to S[&]T ventures, Irma Borst and René Roumen from the Netherlands Enterprise Agency, and the Ministerie van Economische Zaken, for recognizing Orbital Eye’s potential and supporting our mission to provide innovative solutions for monitoring crucial infrastructure.

Together, we are building a sustainable future where satellite technology plays an essential role in ensuring safety and efficiency of vital systems worldwide.

Earlier this year, Gasunie conducted market research to assess if there are suitable, sustainable alternatives for helicopter-based monitoring available. This market research showed that Orbital Eye has such an alternative available – satellite-based monitoring with COSMIC-EYE!

In order to demonstrate how Gasunie’s pipelines can be monitored with COSMIC-EYE, Orbital Eye is currently monitoring three segments of Gasunie’s pipeline network for 6 months, in three different areas in the Netherlands. Not only will these demonstrations be used to showcase the capabilities of satellite-based monitoring, lessons learned during the project will also be used for a potential larger implementation of COSMIC-EYE within Gasunie.

We are excited to demonstrate to Gasunie how satellite-based monitoring can contribute to safety in the pipeline corridor! 🏗
