HEADS (Hydrocarbon Early Automatic Detection System) combines different sensors and is able to detect small volumes of hydrocarbons on the water surface in a few minutes and with no human intervention.
Sensors located on the coast automatically detect spills on the surface of the sea
Upon detection, an alarm is triggered in the control centre that gets displayed on the operation console of the HMI (Human Machine Interface)
Reduces the levelof operational risks
Risk
Identifies incidents causedby third parties and providesevidences to resolve conflicts
Conflict solving
Especially suitable for facilities near protected areas or withhigh nearby activity
Sensitive areas
Security for remotelyoperated assets
Unmanned facilities
Reveals failures andpromotes transparency within organizations
Transparency
Minimizes response costs and monitoring and prevention costs
Costs
Ensures compliance ofregulations and standards and supports environmentalcertifications
Compliance
