IoT solutions for the Oil and Gas industry

As an early adapter of digital transformation, the oil and gas industry is no stranger to using digital technologies including SCADA systems to integrate dispersed assets and enhance operational efficiency. With the emergence of the Internet of Things and LoRaWAN®, the industry continues to embrace advanced technology to drive productivity and cost-efficiency while satisfying growing stakeholder demands for greater transparency in occupational safety and environmental accountability. This paper will discuss about one of the key areas where the oil and gas industry can reap tangible benefits from the IoT using LoRaWAN® connectivity which is the lone worker safety.

How can IoT contribute in lone worker safety?

Within the oil and gas sector, the potential for health and safety incidents is always present. Lone workers are typically the most vulnerable in this sector and face a multitude of occupational hazards, including slips and falls, confined spaces, electrocution, heavy equipment and machinery, and exposure to hazardous or flammable gas. In these cases, fast response time is crucial, but identifying, locating, and securing workers across multiple locations is no easy task. To minimize the risk of serious injury or death, it is essential that lone workers have a reliable line of communication to instantly check-in or signal for assistance in the event of a safety incident. From wearable biometric or environmental sensors to lone worker tracking solutions, the Internet of Things (IoT) is helping create new opportunities for improving the way people work.

Using IoT, safety managers can now access real-time data on each lone worker’s exact location and status to respond to safety incidents in real-time. Examples of this technology include connected gas sensors and wearable biometric sensors to alert workers to fatigue and unsafe environmental conditions while instantaneously notifying designated support staff that assistance is needed. Other applications include IoT-enabled panic button devices used to transmit an emergency signal from any location.
