Oil & Gas: How to Get Better Security Coverage in Remote Areas

Updated on March 31, 2024.

Spanning large geographical areas in often remote locations, Oil & Gas companies often face specific security challenges requiring powerful solutions designed to provide amplified, multilayered protection.

Thankfully, robust new solutions like Hybrid Security are designed to meet these industry-specific challenges with unprecedented precision, power and efficiency.

Let’s take a closer look at sector-specific security concerns facing many Oil & Gas companies today—and how Hybrid Security can help.

What are the biggest security challenges facing the oil & gas industry today?

Often located in remote areas, making it difficult to provide adequate physical security coverage.
Inadequate security coverage: The vast size of these facilities can make it challenging to monitor all areas, making them vulnerable to potential security threats like terrorism and extremist attacks.
Perimeter security.
Employee safety.

How Hybrid Security can help:

Hybrid Security provides the unique advantage of having manned guards focusing on key entry gates, while the rest of the area can be monitored remotely by a surveillance system, providing Oil & Gas sector a unified and powerful solution for its unique security needs.
Vast-sized facilities can benefit from Hybrid Security through the strategic integration of security systems, such as access control, video surveillance, and intrusion detection. This provides a comprehensive view of security across the facility while enabling personnel to respond promptly to security threats when needed.
Hybrid Security can be tailored to provide “expanded perimeters” with technology by creating a virtual fence-line well outside the property, ultimately establishing additional layers of security for advanced detection.
