Detect.
Decide.
Protect.
AI-powered HSE surveillance for oil & gas — PPE compliance, zone access, and safety violation detection with calibrated dual-AI decisions in under 154ms.
The Platform
Three layers. One decision.
vAIgilant combines GPU-accelerated computer vision, calibrated AI decision models, and a real-time command center into a unified HSE intelligence platform.
DeepStream Vision AI
NVIDIA DeepStream 9.1 with TensorRT-optimized YOLO models processes every camera frame with GPU acceleration. Detects PPE violations, fall events, zone breaches, vehicle proximity, and 12+ other safety scenarios simultaneously across 64+ camera streams.
Decision Model Layer
A dual-model System One AI layer replaces rule-based threshold logic with calibrated probability distributions. System One decision model classifies alert metadata in 114ms; vision decision model visually verifies from the camera frame in 40ms. Together they cut false positives by 40–60%.
Real-Time Command Center
SvelteKit frontend with WebSocket-driven live plant map, trajectory tracking, and role-based alert dashboards. HSE Managers see auto-escalated critical events; Representatives review medium-confidence cases with probability breakdowns for fast, informed decisions.
Decision Model Intelligence
"Detect and Decide" — a new category
Traditional surveillance detects events. vAIgilant goes further: it makes calibrated, auditable safety decisions with probability distributions that are statistically meaningful — enabling automated escalation thresholds that would be irresponsible with LLM confidence scores.
Per-event System One decision model questions
Q2 Score: "DEESI severity [1–5]" → 3.7
Q3 Choice: "Category [ppe/fall/fire/zone]" → ppe:0.71
Q4 Noul: "Escalate to HSE Manager?" → 0.88
Cost: ~$0.000004 · Latency: ~114ms · All parallel
Dual Decision Pipeline
How It Works
From frame to decision in 154ms
Every camera event travels through a disciplined pipeline: GPU vision detection, AI metadata classification, visual frame verification, and confidence-gated escalation — fully automated for high-confidence events, human-in-the-loop for everything else.
DEESI Framework
Aligned with IOGP Life-Saving Rules
Every alert follows the DEESI lifecycle — a structured approach to safety event management aligned with IOGP standards. decision model score questions map directly to DEESI stages, enabling automated workflow routing.

Use Cases
Built for industrial environments
Designed for oil & gas refineries, petrochemical plants, LNG terminals, and offshore facilities — environments where a missed safety violation has life-or-death consequences.
PPE Compliance
Detect missing hard hats, high-visibility vests, safety gloves, steel-toed boots, and protective goggles across all monitored zones. System One decision model scores context — a violation in a live hydrocarbon area at 2 AM is weighted differently than one in the cafeteria. Automated escalation at configurable confidence thresholds.
Restricted Zone Access
Define restricted, limited-access, and vehicle-exclusion zones by drawing polygons on live camera views. Detect unauthorised entry, maximum occupancy breaches, and prohibited vehicle movement. System One decision model compounds zone type, time of day, personnel count, and authorization level into a single severity score.
Lone Worker Safety
Monitor workers operating alone in high-risk areas. Detect stationary persons, abnormal postures, fall events, and man-down scenarios using skeletal pose estimation. Lone worker + restricted zone + no PPE + no recent check-in triggers a critical compound System One decision model severity score requiring immediate escalation.
Leak & Flame Detection
Visual detection of liquid leaks, abnormal vapor plumes, and open flame events with thermal cross-validation.
Vehicle & LPR
License plate recognition, speed monitoring, and vehicle-pedestrian proximity alerts with live plant map tracking.
Behavioural Detection
Smoking detection, abnormal gathering behaviour, and unauthorized equipment interaction in live hydrocarbon zones.
Who We Serve
Built for high-hazard industrial environments
vAIgilant is purpose-built for facilities where safety violations have life-or-death consequences and compliance is non-negotiable.
Upstream Oil & Gas
Drilling platforms, wellhead facilities, and production sites where lone workers and permit-to-work compliance are critical.
Refineries & Petrochemical Plants
High-occupancy process areas where PPE compliance, zone access control, and hot-work monitoring protect against major accident hazards.
LNG Terminals & Offshore Platforms
Air-gapped deployments for data sovereignty. Full on-premise stack — no cloud dependency, no sensitive footage leaving the facility.
Chemical & Specialty Plants
Multi-hazard environments needing simultaneous monitoring of PPE, chemical handling procedures, spill detection, and restricted-area access.
Power Generation
High-voltage exclusion zones, arc-flash PPE verification, and contractor workforce monitoring across large generation facilities.
Port & Terminal Operations
Vehicle-pedestrian conflict zones, cargo handling PPE compliance, and dangerous goods proximity monitoring in busy terminal environments.
Technology Stack
Enterprise-grade, open foundations
Built on industry-proven open-source foundations with commercial GPU acceleration — deployable on-premise, air-gapped, or hybrid cloud.
