4 WAYS TECHNOLOGY HAS IMPROVED SAFETY IN THE OIL AND GAS INDUSTRY

by US Energy MediaMarch 22, 2022March 22, 2022
Share0

When you think of the oil and gas industry, perhaps you think of drilling rigs
out in the middle of nowhere or workers in hazardous environments. While these
images may still be accurate, they don’t depict the true image of what happens
in the oil and gas industry. Thanks to advances in technology, the oil and gas
industry has become a much safer workplace. Here are four ways technology has
improved safety in the oil and gas industry:


IMPROVED ONLINE TRAINING COURSES

One of the most critical aspects of safety in any industry is training. In the
past, oil and gas workers might have had to travel to a central location to
receive training, which was both time-consuming and expensive. With online
safety training courses for the oil industry, workers can receive the same
high-quality training without leaving their job site.

This is important because it allows workers to receive training promptly and
reduces the amount of time away from work. Additionally, online safety courses
can be customized to the specific needs of the company or worker. This means
that workers will be more likely to retain the information from the course and
be able to apply it to their job.




AUTOMATED PROCESSES AND EQUIPMENT

Automation of processes and equipment reduces human intervention in potentially
dangerous situations. While full automation is impractical and impossible in the
oil and gas industry, collaborative robotics designed to work alongside humans
can help automate tasks that are too dangerous or difficult for humans to do.

Additionally, automated processes and equipment are often more accurate than
their manual counterparts. This means that there is less chance for error when
using automated processes and equipment and slimmer chances of accidents.


GREEN TECHNOLOGY

Green technology is not only good for the environment, it’s also suitable for
safety. Through green technology, the ol and gas industry has managed to improve
safety in operations by reducing the need for flaring. Flaring is the burning
off of natural gas that can’t be used or transported, which is then released
into the air as harmful pollutants.

Oil companies can now reduce the risk of accidents and environmental damage by
using green technology to capture and reuse the natural gas that would otherwise
be flared. They can achieve this through bioenergy with carbon capture and
sequence (BECCS). This technology produces energy from plants while eradicating
CO2 from the atmosphere.

So instead of oil rigs running on electricity produced by fossil fuels, they can
use energy from plants and reduce the amount of carbon released into the
atmosphere. Since the world can’t completely get rid of fossil fuels, at least
not now, using this type of technology can significantly reduce the amount of
CO2 released from the oil rigs.


SWIFT FLEET MANAGEMENT

Oil refining companies need the best fleet management software to ensure oil and
oil products are safely and effectively shipped to destinations. The best fleet
management software will have GPS tracking capabilities so that the location of
vehicles can be monitored at all times. This is important for safety and
security reasons and to ensure compliance with regulations.

Fleet management software can also help companies keep track of maintenance
records and schedule repairs to avoid accidents.

While there are many other ways technology has improved safety in the oil and
gas industry, the above four should give you a good idea of its role. By using
the right technology, oil and gas companies can make their operations much safer
and reduce the risks of accidents. If you’re looking to start a business in this
field, be sure to take advantage of the latest and greatest safety technologies.

Oil and gas operations are commonly found in remote locations far from company
headquarters. Now, it's possible to monitor pump operations, collate and analyze
seismic data, and track employees around the world from almost anywhere. Whether
employees are in the office or in the field, the internet and related
applications enable a greater multidirectional flow of information – and control
– than ever before.

It's tempting to think of software as just creating the digital counterparts of
real-world items such as email versus letters or an Excel spreadsheet versus a
ledger. And at a basic level, this is true. After all, the oil and gas industry
spends $5 billion each year on paper records which can be managed more
inexpensively by digital document software.
