Segment · Pipeline Integrity

Pipeline corridors, imaged end-to-end by a networked Droneforce fleet.

100+ mile range, a methane-sensing payload, and a coordination layer that matches how your integrity program actually runs.

Deep Dive

What manned patrols do. Without the pilot.

Linear inspection is a corridor problem, not an area one. A 100-mile range aligns with pipeline geometry — but payload is the real unlock.

The Droneforce™ sweet spot

A single airframe sweeping 100 miles of corridor per sortie, carrying the gas-detection stack a corridor inspection actually needs, without relocating ground crews. Today, that combination means a manned aircraft, complexity, and handoffs. A networked Droneforce™ fleet is flexible, integrated with your integrity-management systems, an extension of your field team, and autonomous on the cadence you set.

Payload advantage

Methane detection on the revisit cadence operators need.

An audit-grade methane-detection payload on one airframe, on the revisit schedule your integrity program needs. Today, comparable sensor coverage means a manned aircraft, a flight crew, and a scheduling window — and revisit cadence stretches past what PHMSA would prefer. The Droneforce™ 55 closes that gap, without aircrew.

Where it wins

Operational, not transactional.

  • vs. manned fixed-wing Routine revisit cadence, unmanned, no aircrew scheduling.
  • vs. helicopters Same sensor quality, unmanned.
  • vs. satellite methane monitoring Pinpoint source resolution, on-demand tasking, not weather-gated.
Outputs

Multi-sensor pipeline data processed on-board and streamed live.

Data from a networked Droneforce™ fleet, integrated with the systems you already run — keyed to the assets you already manage, delivered into the tools your operations team already uses.

Geo-referenced methane, thermal, RGB, and LiDAR data — AI/ML-processed on-board for real-time feature detection, streamed via Droneforce One’s API into the GIS, integrity-management, and reporting workflows your operations team already uses. Timestamped and geolocated for ingest by operator-standard analytics platforms; segment-level tagging available via integration with your pipeline-referencing system.

Instead of helicopter video a technician has to transcribe.
Launch partner · Summer 2026

Looking for one pipeline-integrity launch partner.

Oil, gas, or utility rights-of-way requiring persistent BVLOS corridor inspection and automated anomaly reporting. Partners get front-of-line access to the first operational aircraft, direct influence over mission profiles, and the reference-case position as we expand.

Think your operation fits?

Short application. Discovery conversation. If it’s a fit, you’re on the manifest.
