Demand for energy exploration, refining and market growth requires cost-effective 24/7 wireless gas detection, risk mitigation, safety
The search for new energy sources including shale gas, fracking, offshore drilling, land-based drilling and remote drilling requires faster, more easily deployable 24/7 safety/risk mitigation solutions that real-time gas detection and VOC monitoring provides.
Industrial accidents, such as the 2010 catastrophic explosion of the Deepwater Horizon oil rig, continue to emphasize the need for effective gas detection and monitoring solutions. Organizations such as the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) also continue to set standards and define the acceptable level of toxic gas exposure to personnel.
