Industries / Energy & Infrastructure
Inspect itwithout shutting it down.
Elevated, remote and enclosed assets examined from the air, so condition is documented without taking the asset offline or sending a person into a hazardous space.

The operational need
What makes these assetshard to inspect.
Energy and infrastructure inspection is rarely limited by willingness. It is limited by access, by downtime, and by what it costs to put a person somewhere hazardous.
01
Access means downtime
Getting eyes on a stack, a roof or an elevated run often means scaffolding, a lift, or taking the asset out of service to do it safely.
02
Some spaces are hazardous
Tanks, vessels and enclosed structures carry confined-space risk, and every entry brings permits, watch personnel and time.
03
Faults are invisible in daylight
Heat signatures that indicate a failing joint or a wet insulation layer simply do not show in an ordinary photograph.
04
The record is inconsistent
Inspections captured differently each cycle cannot be compared, so deterioration is argued from memory rather than evidence.

How wehelp.
Transport Canada Advanced certification covers the environments these assets sit in — controlled airspace, built-up areas and close proximity to aerodromes and helipads.
01
Thermal & visual inspection
Thermal and RGB capture flown to an agreed brief, so a heat signature is recorded alongside the visual context needed to interpret it. Returned as a documented set with the capture parameters noted.
- Thermal imagery
- Visual inspection set
- No access equipment
- Parameters documented
02
Oil industry operations
Aerial support for oil and gas sites, an established part of Caswell Aviation’s work — site documentation, asset condition and access to areas that are slow or unsafe to reach on foot.
- Site documentation
- Asset condition
- Remote locations
- Difficult access
03
Confined-space inspection
An emerging capability for enclosed assets such as fuel tanks and sewer systems, where signal is limited. Tethered aircraft with gyroscopic stabilisation, thermal cameras and onboard LED lighting return real-time visual data without a person entering the space.
- Tethered operation
- Onboard LED lighting
- Thermal capture
- Real-time visual data
04
Planned and briefed
Airspace, permissions and site safety are handled before anyone arrives, and operations can run day or night depending on what the asset requires.
- Airspace review
- Permissions
- Site safety
- Day & night capability
