Teesside’s drone trial completed 61% of scheduled flights

ConocoPhillips reports a 90-day Greatham Tank Farm trial in early 2025.

61% of scheduled flights completed. Flights took about 16 minutes; the operator compares the inspection with about 8 hours on foot and by vehicle.

Limits: A Dock 3 upgrade and >80% utilization were prospective. Special permits were required near a nuclear site. This establishes a rollout limit, not abandonment or a failure rate. Image review effort and costs are missing; no net savings established.

Faster approvals and better order accuracy are intended benefits; no measured result or ROI.

Limits: No transaction population, costs or actual rollout completion. Supplier fee waivers do not establish operator cost. An available Enverus route is not exclusive-platform adoption.
