Why Humberside Businesses Choose DJM Aerial Solutions
Humberside is home to one of the UK’s most significant concentrations of energy and process industry infrastructure. The Humber estuary corridor hosts major gas processing facilities, petrochemical terminals, offshore energy support operations, renewable energy assets, and large-scale port and logistics infrastructure — all of which require regular inspection, maintenance, and asset integrity management.
These environments present unique inspection challenges: assets that are live and operational, structures that are difficult or dangerous to access by conventional means, and timescales dictated by planned outages and shutdown windows. DJM Aerial Solutions is experienced in working within exactly these constraints.
Our drone inspection platforms allow us to inspect flare stacks, storage tanks, pipework, elevated structures, internal vessels, and confined assets quickly and safely — delivering the high-resolution visual data, thermal imagery, and survey outputs your engineering and maintenance teams need, with minimal disruption to operations.

Recent Projects in Humberside
Live Flare Stack Drone Inspection — Gas Processing Facility, Humberside DJM Aerial Solutions completed a live flare stack drone inspection at a gas processing facility in Humberside, assessing flare tip components, guide wires, turnbuckles, structural steelwork, access systems, and fastening assemblies while the asset remained fully operational. The inspection was completed safely and efficiently without any requirement for the flare to be taken offline or for rope access operatives to work at height. [View Case Study →]
This project demonstrates our ability to deliver high-value inspection data on live, hazardous assets — one of the most demanding environments in the industrial inspection sector.
