Abstract

Over 1,000 consecutive days of safe operation, with zero missed detections and a 90% reduction in false alarm rates! A successful case study of oil and gas field security radar. 
In oil and gas fields, high-value assets coexist with high-risk environments—any failure in protective measures could lead to substantial losses. True safety isn't about short-term deployments; rather, it’s about standing the test of long-term operation. The security radar system deployed by Nanoradar Technology at a certain oil and gas field has delivered an impressive performance: it has been operating safely and continuously for over 1,000 days, with zero missed detections and a false-alarm rate reduced by more than 90%.


I. Customer Pain Points 
Traditional video surveillance systems experience a more than 30% drop in recognition accuracy under conditions such as nighttime or rainy and foggy weather, leading to frequent false alarms. Manual patrols, conducted every 2–4 hours, leave blind spots in terms of coverage. Laser-based intrusion detection systems have high false-alarm rates and struggle to distinguish between different types of targets. Overall, current security measures still rely primarily on post-event response, lacking proactive early-warning capabilities that offer round-the-clock monitoring with low false-alarm rates.

II. Unmanned Protection Solution for Oil and Gas Fields Based on Millimeter-Wave Radar 
The solution consists of a 24 GHz security radar, a camera, and an RVSM radar-video fusion platform. The radar provides active detection capabilities around the clock and over long distances, while the video is used for target verification and evidence collection. The RVSM system fuses radar and video data to enable alert linkage, trajectory visualization, and unified management. Even in complex weather conditions and at night, the system can operate reliably, upgrading oil and gas field security from a passive alarm system to a proactive protection framework that offers early detection and continuous tracking.

Case Study 1: An oil depot in Inner Mongolia: 1. 3-kilometer linear perimeter protection

Security requirements: A 1.3-kilometer perimeter fence in the reservoir area to prevent personnel from climbing over the wall and barbed wire fence. 
Radar scheme: Using existing distribution boxes as nodes, a phased front-and-back blind-spot coverage solution is implemented by installing nine NSR200 perimeter radars in a queue. 
Actual effect: Nine radars achieve 100% coverage of the 1.3-kilometer perimeter of the storage area, with no blind spots. During testing, when personnel simulated climbing over the fence to intrude, the radars promptly captured their trajectories and triggered the PTZ cameras to automatically zoom in and track them continuously—without any loss of detection or false negatives throughout the entire process.


Case Study 2: A gas gathering station site in Xi'an—600-meter external perimeter fence for protection and interaction with the outside world

Security requirements: The 600-meter perimeter fence around the factory premises is designed to prevent personnel from climbing over the wall. 
Radar scheme: Three NSR200 perimeter radars have been deployed in key areas for coverage and detection. 
Actual effect: Three radars perform saturated detection and precise alerting of targets located above the station’s perimeter wall as well as within a 1-meter radius of the area, while delineating alarm zones to filter out personnel activity in normal operational areas. This ensures that only targets invading above the wall or showing signs of intrusion within a 1-meter radius of the wall are reported, reducing the false-alarm rate by 90%.


3. “Intelligence Vanguard”—Nanoradar Perimeter & Area Security Radar

NSR200 Perimeter Radar 
The NSR200 perimeter radar is a 20° narrow-beam radar capable of detecting targets at ranges of 200 meters—“the sniper of long perimeters.” 
Applicable scenario: A long, straight physical perimeter surrounding the airport.

 NSR300W Area Radar 
The NSR300W area radar is a 90° wide-angle radar with a maximum coverage area of 280,000 square meters—the “guardian of open spaces.” 
Suitable for apron areas, runway ends, and irregular terrain scenarios.

 

Nanoradar Security Radar Panorama 
Nanoradar Security Radar boasts a detection range from 60m to 3,000m, featuring a high protection rating that is waterproof and dustproof. It filters out nearby mosquitoes and insects, and is shock-resistant and drop-proof. It can operate reliably in challenging environments such as rain, snow, smog, sandstorms, and darkness, maintaining stable performance even under extreme conditions. It provides 24-hour, real-time security monitoring of protected areas around the clock, seven days a week.
