Oil and Gas Technologies (OG-TECH)

Who we are

Oil & Gas Technologies

OGTECH was established in 2011 in Aix-en-Provence, France, to serve customers of the Petroleum, Petrochemical and Power industries in France (Total, Petro Ineos, Lyondel Basel, Kem one, Elengy…).

GV first specialized in portable Infrared cameras for Gas detection (OGI cameras), then we expanded our range of product with fixed OGI cameras showing the gas cloud and its flow rate in real time.

And later with flames detection and hot spot monitoring, as well as Flare monitoring.

Today we can supply gas leaks/flames monitoring full turnkey solutions including the cameras, of course, as well as wireless video transmission (optional), and the hardware + software to be installed in the control room in order to control the system.

Our values

To summarize, our equipment is divided in 4 categories:

- Portable Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) cameras,

(GasViewer: GV-P3234, GV-P4547, GV-P714)

To detect on site gas leaks as part of environmental campaigns (EPA Method 21), to ease maintenance planning (LDAR Programs) and/or site safety upgrades.

Multiple gases detected: all VOCs, NH3, SF6, CO, CO2…

- Fixed gas cloud tracking system,

(GasViewer: GV-F3234, GV-F714)

Using OGI camera for 24/7 on site gas cloud monitoring.

It automatically triggers an alarm in your control room in case of gas leaks detection. Our camera allows the end-user to visualize, on a screen installed in his control room, the gas cloud, its size, and wanderings in order to adapt his emergency response accordingly.

Full turnkey system can be installed using secure wireless technology and solar power supply to reduce installation cost.

- Fixed advance fire monitoring and flame detection camera.

(FlamViewer: FV-F17)

The hot spot monitoring will trigger an alarm for corrective action and to avoid a potential fire start, if the temperature of any equipment (motor, pump, transformer…) located in the camera field of view is over a threshold temperature specified by the end user,.

The flame detection function will trigger an alarm when detecting a fire in the camera field of view. It can detect a 1m2 up to 2 km away, depending on the lens installed on the camera, whatever the type of fuel (hydrocarbons, any chemical, H2, wood….).

It can visualize H2 and Methanol flames

Both alarms are shown on a monitor installed in your control room.

Full turnkey system can be installed using secure wireless technology and solar power supply to reduce installation cost.

- Contactless Oil spill on water detection

(OilViewer)

Our UV technology allows to detect oil spill, as thin as 10 microns, on water up to 10 m away (3 m recommended).

Multiple units can be linked wirelessly, and detection information send to your control room mapping your locations on a screen.
