Oil and Gas

Get an unbiased view of every asset

Capture aerial, ground and thermal data across your up, mid and downstream sites so you can keep inspections safe, compliant and on schedule without adding more trips to the field.
Used on 3 million sites in 180 countries

Saves $500,000 a year on well inspections like California Resources Corporation

Asset integrity & inspections

See every asset before it fails.

Give maintenance teams timestamped views of tanks, stacks, and equipment to prove condition, repairs, and compliance.
Remote asset visibility

Stop flying blind between sites.

Let control rooms, ESG and leadership see pipelines and remote facilities in one shared, timestamped view of risk.
Inspection schedule & maintenance planning

Plan crews off current conditions.

Use aerial, thermal, and ground data to prioritize LDAR, inspections and repairs where risk and impact are highest.

Capture from every vantage point

Frequently asked questions

Is DroneDeploy the right fit
 for your operations?

Do we have to shut down units or take equipment offline to use DroneDeploy?

Not in most cases. DroneDeploy is used today to monitor and inspect oil & gas facilities without shutting off production – giving you detailed views of assets while they stay online.

Is this only for supermajors, or can smaller operators and service providers use it too?

DroneDeploy is used by a wide range of energy companies – from global operators and pipeline companies to regional producers and inspection firms – across upstream, midstream, and downstream assets.

We already perform manual inspections. Do we really need drones and robots as well?

Most customers start by augmenting existing workflows, then quickly standardize on DroneDeploy once they see the impact: 40%+ time reductions on inspection workflows, hundreds of thousands of dollars saved in a matter of months, and less time spent on scaffolding or in hazardous areas.

Can DroneDeploy meet our security and compliance requirements?

Yes. Enterprise energy customers use DroneDeploy as a central platform for flight operations and data because it offers encrypted data at rest and in transit, role‑based permissions, and enterprise‑grade controls including SOC 2 and ISO 27001 certifications.

Do we need in‑house pilots and robotics experts to get started?

No. You can begin with Data on Demand for aerial capture, then scale into in‑house programs and robotics over time. Our team supports training, best practices, and program design so your operations, integrity, and inspection teams can ramp quickly.
