Pleiades Neo Market Series: Oil, Gas, Mining, and Energy


Optimizing Project Planning and Monitoring Through Advanced Satellite Solutions


The suite of products and services is designed by Airbus to support every stage of resource management and development. From feasibility studies to decommissioning, these offerings provide critical support in evaluating asset status, reducing the necessity for on-site inspections, and managing projects with a high degree of accuracy. Satellite imagery plays a vital role in providing a continuous, high-quality overview of projects. By offering access to a vast historical image archive, these solutions facilitate the monitoring of environmental impacts, real-time risk management, and cost-effective project planning. The ability to remotely assess asset conditions and detect potential issues rapidly enhances decision-making processes and helps in anticipating and mitigating delays.


Comprehensive Solutions for Oil, Gas, Mining, and Energy Sectors


The depletion of natural resources and the increasing demand for unconventional exploration methods, such as shale oil, highlight the need for precise and reliable geospatial insights. Geospatial products and digital solutions address these needs by providing essential tools for identifying exploration sites and monitoring operational sites effectively. Whether planning infrastructure networks, constructing facilities in challenging terrains, or conducting terrain analysis for resource extraction, satellite imagery and reference layers offer unparalleled accuracy and flexibility.


  1. Imagery: The constellation of commercial satellites available is the largest on the market and offers a wide range of multi-resolution and multi-source data. This extensive coverage provides flexible imagery options suited for both large-area and specific location needs, ensuring thorough monitoring and analysis.

  2. Reference Layers: Elevation products are crucial for planning and analysis in complex environments. They offer highly accurate information on terrain features, regardless of relief and weather conditions, supporting infrastructure development and resource exploration.

  3. Stack Insight: In the mining sector, the Stack Insight tool allows for remote monitoring of mines, including volume calculations and change detection. This capability removes the need for personnel to be physically present on-site, thereby reducing operational costs and enhancing safety.


Advancements in Earth Observation with Pléiades Neo Satellites


The launch of Airbus' Pléiades Neo satellites represents a significant leap forward in Earth observation technology. These satellites, financed, manufactured, owned, and managed by Airbus, are categorized as providing 'Very-High Resolution Imagery' with each satellite offering a resolution of 30 cm. The constellation's capabilities enable rapid tasking and allow for the revisiting of any point on Earth at least daily.

With a daily contribution of approximately 1,000,000 km² of imagery to Airbus' repository, users have access to some of the most current and detailed data available. The high-resolution imagery enhances advanced image analysis, improving object recognition and providing valuable information for a wide range of applications, including risk analysis, damage assessment, and other critical tasks.



Embracing the Future of Earth Observation

The Pléiades Neo constellation stands at the forefront of Earth observation, offering Very-High resolution imagery that marks a significant leap in data precision and accessibility. This advanced imaging capability not only delivers unparalleled data quality and frequent updates but also extends its impact across a wide range of applications, including oil, gas, mining, and energy. By setting a new standard in Earth observation, Pléiades Neo plays an essential role in meeting the complex needs of resource management and development, underscoring the indispensable value of satellite technology in today's data-driven landscape.
