Asset Integrity Inspection Services by DJM Aerial Solutions
Combining Engineering Insight with Advanced UAV Technology
At DJM Aerial Solutions, we specialise in delivering high-quality asset integrity inspections across industrial, energy, and infrastructure sectors. Using a combination of advanced drone platforms—including both external UAVs and confined space drones like the Elios 3—we help asset owners identify defects, monitor degradation, and maintain safe, compliant operations.
With deep-rooted experience in engineering, inspection, and hazardous environments, our team delivers more than just images, we provide insightful condition assessments, spatially accurate data, and clear reporting that support real-world maintenance decisions.
What Is Asset Integrity Inspection?
Asset integrity refers to the ability of an asset—such as a tank, stack, vessel, silo, culvert, or structural frame—to operate safely and effectively throughout its lifecycle. Inspections are essential to:
Detect defects before they cause failure
Validate construction or commissioning quality
Monitor corrosion, fatigue, and wear
Comply with industry and regulatory requirements
Support planned maintenance and life extension
Traditional inspection methods often rely on rope access, scaffolding, or confined space entry. These methods carry significant cost and risk. At DJM Aerial Solutions, we replace or enhance these methods using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) equipped with high-resolution visual, thermal, and LiDAR systems.
Our UAV-Based Inspection Capabilities
We operate a fleet of specialist drones for both external and internal inspection tasks, offering data-rich, non-contact inspection in difficult-to-access environments.
External Inspections:
Using drones such as the Mavic 3 Enterprise and Matrice 300 RTK, we inspect:
Flare stacks and chimneys
Rooftops and cladding
Air-cooled condensers (ACC)
Silos, tanks, and pipework
Bridges, gantries, and elevated platforms
Internal Confined Space Inspections:
Using the Elios 3 drone, we conduct safe internal inspections of:
Waste gas stacks and scrubbers
Boiler gas pass 1, 2, and 3
Underground culverts and tunnels
Process vessels and feed hoppers
Closed systems such as chimneys and ducts
All inspections are supported with 4K visual imagery, LiDAR mapping, and thermal scanning, depending on the environment and client requirements.
Why Clients Trust Our Asset Integrity Inspections
Our inspections provide more than visuals—they are fully engineered to support decision-making, compliance, and operational reliability.
Key Deliverables:
Condition reports with annotated imagery
Visual and thermal datasets
3D point clouds from LiDAR
GIS and CAD-compatible outputs
Time-based comparisons for degradation tracking
These outputs are used by engineering teams, insurers, and asset managers to inform planning, maintenance, and capital decisions.
