Description

Advances in aerial sensing and imaging are transforming how regulators and operators identify and assess difficult-to-locate wells, especially in environmentally sensitive regions. This session will examine how drone-based surveys are being used to detect surface hazards, methane leaks, and undocumented wells, improving data accuracy and reducing field risk. It will also explore emerging applications of these technologies across other phases of site assessment and remediation.
