Oil depot safety guardian: End the threat of drones, guard the safety of oil depots
Time：2024-02-02
"The installation of the defense system has completely solved the problem of weak security prevention and control in the airspace of the oil depots in the reservoir area, achieved all-round and all-weather security protection in the airspace, and ensured the safe and smooth operation of the oil depots." Petrochina Ningxia petrochemical company introduced.
Traditional surveillance methods are too small, too weak and too slow
CNPC Ningxia Petrochemical Company said that in order to solve the problem of UAV threat in oil depot, traditional monitoring means were adopted, mainly relying on video surveillance and radar system, and the following problems existed in the face of modern UAV technology:
Limited monitoring range
Due to the limitation of the field of view Angle and distance, the UAV is difficult to capture in the blind area of sight.
Weak recognition ability
Traditional methods cannot accurately identify the type, payload and flight intent of a drone.
Slow response
Traditional means cannot detect and take corresponding countermeasures in time, which increases security risks.
The state has requirements
In the "Petroleum and Petrochemical System security anti-terrorism prevention requirements Part 1: Oil and Gas Field Enterprises" (GA 1551.1-2019), it is clearly required that the anti-UAV defense system in the petroleum and petrochemical industry must meet the following three requirements:
1. Signal transmission power should be less than or equal to 10mw;
2. The system should be able to work continuously for 24 hours without personnel on duty;
3. The system shall obtain the riot control certificate recognized by the state.
For a plan to work, it has to be tailored
According to the technical application characteristics and prevention requirements of the petroleum and petrochemical industry, Geneng Kosh tailor-made a 24-hour UAV defense solution for Ningxia Petrochemical.

The program uses the domestic top advanced satellite navigation technology to control the UAV, through the launch of simulated GPS signals, non-contact to interfere with the UAV, lure the UAV to crash land, return or fly to the target area for capture.
The later on-site installation link is the key to the project, especially considering the particularity of the CNPC plant, Geneng Kensi strictly abide by the provisions of the CNPC plant, the construction personnel through physical examination, safety training and certificate audit, and in advance to handle all kinds of operation tickets and submit the site construction plan, complete the installation task with quality and quantity.

When the system comes online, with its excellent performance and precise control technology, it can build a strong protective barrier in the range of 500-1000 meters, depending on the size of the protected area and the overall environment. Through the intelligent operation of the central control room, one-button countermeasures are realized to effectively prevent the interference of drones on the oil depot area, so as to ensure public safety and prevent potential risks.

Customized UAV defense solution Features:
- Real-time detection, AI intelligent protection
In the case of unattended, real-time detection of black-flying drones in the area, automatic identification of black-flying drones and aircraft tracking and signal interception, detection and countermeasures equipment does not produce any signal radiation pollution to the surrounding facilities and radio environment.
- Precise location, navigational decoy
By interfering the data link and positioning system of the UAV with the electromagnetic signal, the position of the pilot can be located, and the UAV can be tricked into flying to the designated position and landing, avoiding the ground damage caused by the UAV falling directly.
- Visual management, convenient and simple
Geneng Kosh anti-UAV active defense equipment is managed with low altitude safety monitoring and management platform, visualizing and easily changing and setting the working status of countermeasure equipment. The hardware has IP65 protection grade, and the installation in outdoor locations is basically maintenance free.
Key areas (units) UAV public safety charge system
The first anti-UAV active defense system in Ningxia built by Geneng Kesh has been running stably for more than 1 year and achieved remarkable results. A total of 1713 black flying drones were detected, of which 981 were found in the warning area, 176 were found in the countermeasures area, and 42 were found in the core area, assisting the public security department to verify 2 pilots, effectively guaranteeing the production safety of the plant.
Oil and petrochemical industry UAV defense is urgent
In September 2019, drone attacks on Saudi oil facilities led to a sharp drop in production, affecting oil prices and the chemical industry.
In March 2020, U.S. forces guarding oil and gas fields in eastern Syria were attacked by improvised mortar shells and other munitions dropped by small drones.
On December 29, 2023, the Russian government called on oil and gas producers to strengthen their anti-drone defenses in case of drone attacks in Ukraine.
Drone strikes on Saudi oil depots
At present, China's supervision of "black flying" drones is still in the development stage, although there is no such serious accident as the above, but the illegal flight of drones in the oil and gas station reservoir area and the surrounding area, taking photos, delivery of illegal items and other interference incidents occur from time to time.
This may cause the disclosure of trade secrets, but also easy to cause accidental explosion and combustion, resulting in heavy casualties or economic losses.
Geneng Kosh opens a new era of low-altitude safety protection
In order to deal with the threat of drones, Geneng Kosh has always insisted on continuous learning, understanding and research to improve low-altitude safety technology, focusing on risk prediction technology and understanding of drone technology.
According to the characteristics of UAV, such as small size, difficult discovery, fast flight speed and flexible action, a complete set of air defense measures is developed to break through the traditional point-to-point lone combat mode.
In particular, the anti-UAV defense system for the petroleum and petrochemical industry has been successfully applied to a number of oil depot bases such as Guangzhou, Zhoushan and Ningbo, effectively solving the security problems of the reservoir area airspace, realizing all-round and all-weather protection, and ensuring the safe operation of the oil depot.

The prevention of drone terrorist attacks in petroleum and petrochemical systems is related to national security, energy security and social security, and must be improved in political standing and paid great attention to. Geneng Kosen will actively promote the orderly development of low-altitude security industry, provide strong support for national counter-terrorism, stability maintenance, public security and military applications, and strive to safeguard low-altitude security and serve national security.
