What Is Oil & Gas Site Remote Security Monitoring?
Oil and gas site security cameras are solar-powered, AI-enabled surveillance systems engineered to protect remote wellpads, pipeline corridors, compressor stations, tank farms, and refineries around the clock. Unlike conventional CCTV that only records, a fully managed system combines 4K resolution cameras, AI-powered intrusion and perimeter detection, Starlink satellite connectivity, and live human monitoring operators who verify threats and dispatch law enforcement within minutes, with zero dependency on on-site power or cellular infrastructure. Jobsite Sentry deploys this complete system to any oil and gas location in the US within 24 hours, starting from $1.99 per hour with no contract.

The Oil Field Reality
$7.5B
Estimated annual cost of oil theft and energy infrastructure crime in the US, including diesel, crude, copper, and equipment¹
Diesel & Crude Theft
Fuel theft from remote wellpads is the most common and costly incident. Unsecured sites lose thousands of dollars per event.
Copper & Aluminum Theft
Electrical conductor theft at compressor stations and meter sites can cause catastrophic shutdowns and regulatory violations.
Equipment & Tool Theft
Remote sites make easy targets for high-value equipment removal. Hours pass before anyone realizes something is missing.
Unauthorized Access & HSE Risk
Trespassers entering hazardous areas create regulatory liability. No monitoring means no documentation if an incident occurs.
Pipeline Right-of-Way Intrusion
Unauthorized excavation, tampering, or trespassing along pipeline corridors poses major safety and regulatory risks.
Vandalism & Environmental Crime
Deliberate sabotage, illegal dumping, and environmental tampering at oil field sites expose operators to costly remediation and regulatory penalties.
Your remote site is not just unmonitored It is an open invitation
A stolen load of diesel is not just a fuel cost. It is a production shutdown, an HSE incident log entry, and a regulatory conversation you did not want to have. Oil and gas sites face a security threat profile unlike any other industry: remote locations with slow law enforcement response times, high-value assets with no physical access control, and equipment that can disappear overnight with no witnesses. The combination of isolation and high-value targets makes unmonitored oil field operations among the most vulnerable assets in any US energy portfolio.
On-site guards are impractical and expensive for remote wellpads operating 24/7 across hundreds of acres. Basic cameras require cellular connectivity that does not exist in the field. Neither option stops a theft in progress at 2am on a Permian Basin wellpad 80 miles from the nearest town. Jobsite Sentry does.

How Jobsite Sentry Works
From AI detection to law enforcement dispatch in under 4 minutes
Once your unit is live, this is what happens every time something moves on your lease, around the clock, on every shift, whether your superintendent is on-site or three states away.
01
Live Detection Active
AI Perimeter Detection
Computer vision monitors every access road, fence line, tank battery approach, and equipment perimeter without pause. Pump jack motion, flare activity, and wind-driven movement are filtered at the AI layer. Only genuine intrusions, unauthorized vehicles, and after-hours personnel movement trigger an escalation.
02
Under 4 Minutes
Live Operator Verification
Every AI-flagged alert reaches a trained monitoring operator in under 4 minutes. They pull the live feed, assess the situation, and make the call. No automated queues. A human on every single event.
03
Real Time Dispatch
Law Enforcement Dispatch
Confirmed threats trigger an immediate call to local law enforcement with your site location, a live threat description, and active footage as evidence. An active dispatch while the event is happening, not a morning report.
04
Instant Alert
You Receive the Evidence
Your field superintendent receives an instant mobile alert. Timestamped footage, a written incident report covering access time, vehicle description, threat classification, and dispatch outcome. Everything needed for insurance claims, regulatory documentation, or operator liability defense.

How remote oil and gas site monitoring works: Solar-powered 4K camera trailers are positioned at critical points: wellpad access roads, equipment laydown areas, fuel storage, compressor stations, and perimeter fencing. Onboard AI detects intrusion, unauthorized vehicle movement, and after-hours access in real time. Alerts go immediately to live monitoring operators who verify each threat and dispatch law enforcement within minutes, without requiring wired power or cellular connectivity at the site.
Solar-Powered 4K Camera Trailers
Self-contained mobile surveillance units with 4K resolution, onboard AI, and unlimited solar power. No generator, no wiring, no connection to site utilities required. Deploy at a Permian Basin wellpad, a Wyoming compressor station, or a North Dakota tank farm, and it runs indefinitely.
Starlink Satellite Connectivity
Every unit transmits via Starlink satellite, not cellular towers. Whether your site is in the Bakken shale with no cell signal for 60 miles or a remote DJ Basin location, you get the same live coverage, response capability, and mobile app access as any urban site.
Live Oil Field Security Operators
Trained monitoring professionals verify every AI-flagged alert in real time, 24 hours a day. When a genuine threat is confirmed, whether a fuel theft attempt, unauthorized vehicle, or hazardous area intrusion, they contact law enforcement immediately, not the next morning when a crew arrives.
Built for the Field
Security features engineered for the realities of oil and gas operations
Every capability in the Jobsite Sentry platform was built around the specific threats, environments, and compliance requirements of upstream, midstream, and downstream oil and gas sites.
01
24/7 Live Perimeter Monitoring
Live trained operators watch your site around the clock. Every AI-flagged alert is reviewed by a human within minutes, not hours. Law enforcement is dispatched immediately when a genuine threat is confirmed at your wellpad, tank farm, or compressor station.

Proven in the Field
Real results from real oil field operations
Deployed across upstream, midstream, and downstream sites in the most demanding environments the US energy sector has to offer.
What happens when the AI detects a threat: The moment our AI flags an unauthorized vehicle, perimeter breach, or after-hours activity, a live Jobsite Sentry operator pulls the feed, verifies the threat in under four minutes, and contacts local law enforcement directly. You receive an instant mobile alert with timestamped footage before the responding officer even arrives on scene.
We had three diesel theft incidents in six months on two remote Permian Basin wellpads. After Jobsite Sentry deployed, we went to zero incidents in the following 14 months. The Starlink connection was the key, nothing else worked that far out.
RM
R. Morales
Operations Manager, Permian Basin E&P
The live operators caught a copper theft attempt at our compressor station at 2am. Law enforcement arrived in 18 minutes. Without Jobsite Sentry, that incident would have been a six-figure infrastructure repair and a weeks-long production outage.
KW
K. Williams
Safety Director, Midcontinent Pipeline Operator
We move pads constantly in the Bakken. The fact that Jobsite Sentry trailers redeploy as fast as we do means we have never had an unprotected transition window. That matters at minus-twenty degrees when the nearest sheriff is 50 miles away.

Industry Applications
Security solutions built for every oil & gas environment
From remote wellpads to urban refineries, Jobsite Sentry adapts to the specific security requirements of your site type and operational profile.
Wellpad & Drill Site Security
Most pad theft happens between crew rotations, when no one is on-site and no one is watching.
Continuous perimeter monitoring, lease road surveillance, and access control for active and temporary drilling locations. Deployed within 24 hours of spud, relocates to the next pad in hours, not days.
Upstream
Pipeline Right-of-Way Monitoring
A third-party dig-in on an unmonitored ROW can cost $500K+ in repair, downtime, and PHMSA reporting before the day is over.
Camera trailers positioned along ROW corridors detect unauthorized excavation, encroachment, and trespassing. Units reposition alongside your integrity digs, hydro-tests, and inline inspection runs.
Midstream
Compressor Station & Meter Site
Copper conductor and aluminum bus bar theft at an unmanned compressor station can shut down an entire gathering system overnight.
24/7 AI-powered asset detection protects high-value electrical infrastructure at compressor stations, meter sets, and valve sites, catching intrusions before production goes down, not after.
Midstream
Tank Battery & Produced Water Storage
Illegal crude oil siphoning from tank batteries is one of the most underreported theft types in the Permian, losses often go undetected until a LACT discrepancy flags it weeks later.
AI monitoring tracks every vehicle approach to tank batteries and produced water storage, flags after-hours access, and creates a timestamped record of every LACT measurement window.
Upstream / Midstream
Pumping Unit & SWD Monitoring
Diesel siphoning from pumpjack engine tanks is the most common oilfield theft in Texas and Oklahoma, and it rarely gets reported because operators assume it was an internal discrepancy.
Independent solar-powered cameras at each pumping unit and SWD site provide coverage with no shared infrastructure across the field. Every fuel access, every vehicle, every shift, logged automatically.
Upstream
Refinery & Processing Facility Perimeter
Secondary access points and contractor staging areas at refineries are the most common entry vector for unauthorized personnel, and the hardest for fixed CCTV to cover.
Supplemental mobile surveillance at fractionation plants, gas processing facilities, and refinery perimeters. AI-powered vehicle and personnel detection at contractor yards, maintenance laydown areas, and secondary fence lines.
