Remotely Operated
Inspections

See what matters without sending people where they don’t need to go.

Osprey Integrity delivers remotely operated visual and thermal inspections across aerial, ground, and submersible platforms. Every deployment is designed to capture clear, actionable visual data while reducing exposure, minimizing disruption, and accelerating inspection timelines.

What This Enables

Visual drone inspections


High-resolution aerial inspection for external and internal assets.

Osprey matches platform to application, ensuring stable, high-quality data capture across a wide range of industrial environments.

Enabling Payloads

  • 360° Drop Camera Winch System
  • Onboard LEL

Outcome

Rapid inspection of complex structures with clear visual documentation and minimal operational disruption.

Infrared (IR) Drone Inspections


Thermal insight, captured with precision and discipline.

Osprey’s certified thermography approach ensures accurate readings by ensuring consistent:

  • Viewing Angle
  • Stand Off Distance
  • Emissivity Variables

Applications

  • HRSGs and OTSGs
  • Process furnaces and heaters
  • Rubber-lined piping systems
  • and more…
Infrared Drone Inspection

Outcome

Reliable thermal data that helps teams target intrusive work where it’s actually needed, reducing unnecessary shutdowns.

CUI Screening (Drone-Based)


A structured approach to Corrosion Under Insulation screening.

Osprey combines daytime visual, daytime IR, and nighttime IR to reduce false positives and improve confidence.

~80% success rate since 2022 in detecting corrosion under insulation on large diameter (~3m) assets.

We do NOT recommend this methodology for piping systems. Refer to Robotic NDT for rapid RTR screening.

CUI Screening v2

Outcome

Focused insulation removal and repair - avoiding unnecessary cost, exposure, and disruption.

Ground Robotics


Inspection where aerial systems aren’t practical.

Ground-based robots and crawlers are deployed in:

  • High-dust environments
  • Tight geometries
  • Access-restricted areas

Capabilities

  • External and internal visual inspection
  • Custom robotic configurations – please inquire

Outcome

Safe, precise inspection data in environments that challenge both people and drones.

Submersible (ROV) Inspections


Subsurface visibility without dive teams or dewatering.

Preferred platforms such as the Hydromea EXRAY™ enable high-quality underwater inspections in confined and challenging environments, reducing risk while delivering actionable asset intelligence.

Applications

  • Ballast water tanks on FPSO
  • Fire Water Systems
  • Water – WasteWater Facilities
  • Piers and jetties
  • Retention ponds and waterways
  • Bridges and submerged infrastructure
  • Shoreline and marine assets

In The Field


Methane Reformer Furnace

Scope: Internal inspection of burner tips and refractory tiles across 9 reformer cells.

Constraint: Large scaffold build (~50’ x 30’) per cell for manual inspection.

Osprey Field Execution

Drone visual inspection with integrated LiDAR completed in 8 hours.

Impact:


Rotary Wash Screen (Break-In)

Scope: Internal inspection following detection of oversized ore downstream of system tolerance.

Constraint: Shutdown, isolation, and confined space entry (18–24 hours).

Osprey Field Execution

Rapid-response drone inspection completed without shutdown or personnel confined space entry.

Impact:
