Explosion-Proof Surveillance Systems for Oil & Gas Facilities
ATEX & IECEx compliant camera systems engineered for hazardous environments. Designed for Zone 1, Zone 2 and Class I Division 1 areas.
Oil & Gas Security Problems We Solve
Is your oil & gas facility at risk due to outdated surveillance?
- Non-compliant Equipment: Standard cameras often fail to meet modern safety codes, creating legal vulnerabilities and physical risks for your entire operation.
- Explosion Risks: Using improper housing in Class I, Division 1 areas can trigger catastrophic events. Our systems eliminate the risk of a camera becoming an ignition source in volatile atmospheres.
- Blind Spots in Hazardous Zones: A lack of visibility in volatile areas leads to unmonitored leaks or safety breaches. We provide high-definition clarity where standard hardware cannot survive.
- Failed Inspections & Liability: Avoid the financial sting of forced shutdowns and the high cost of insurance non-compliance. We ensure your surveillance setup passes every audit with ease.

Oil and Gas Industry Insights
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is security important in the oil and gas industry?
Security is crucial in the oil and gas industry because it ensures that society can continue to access and use these resources. We rely on oil and gas for things like transportation, electricity, and manufacturing. Any disruption in production or distribution can have widespread consequences. Strong security helps prevent theft, sabotage, and other threats that can interfere with operations.
What are the main security risks for oil and gas facilities?
Our society depends a lot on oil and gas, so this industry is a prime target for terrorism and sabotage. Not only that, the valuable equipment used makes it prone to theft and vandalism. This sector is also susceptible to fires and explosions due to the flammable nature of oil, gas, and processing materials. These risks can be managed with proper security measures and explosion-proof protection.
What is an explosion-proof camera, and why is it needed?
An explosion-proof camera is a security camera with a special housing. If the camera overheats or sparks in a dangerous area with flammable materials, it could cause an explosion. The camera’s housing keeps any sparks or heat inside, preventing them from reaching the flammable substances. This makes sure the camera doesn’t start an explosion.
What is a container turnstile, and why is it needed?
Turnstiles are physical barriers used to stop unauthorized people from entering secure areas. They are usually connected to an access control system, which decides when to let someone through based on their access method (like a keycard, PIN, or fingerprint scan). Once installed, turnstiles are typically fixed in place and can’t be moved.
In industries like oil and gas, work sites may change frequently. For example, drilling rigs are moved based on where new deposits are found. So, how can these sites secure their perimeter without having to install turnstiles at each location? The answer is container turnstiles.
Container turnstiles are shipping containers (often called CONEX containers) that have turnstiles installed inside. Since they’re in a container, they can be easily transported from place to place. Just load the container onto a truck, drive it to the new location, and unload it there. This makes them perfect for securing temporary sites.
How can I monitor remote drilling rigs and pipelines without power?
To monitor remote drilling rigs and pipelines without power, you can use solar-powered security systems. These systems generate electricity from sunlight, so you can watch your site no matter how far away it is from a power source. They even have backup batteries to keep the cameras running during cloudy days or at night.
How can I get a customized security solution for my work site?
Our process begins with a consultation to discuss your site’s security needs and challenges. We then design a tailored solution, choosing the best surveillance and access control systems.
