Onshore oil fields usually operate remotely without continuous human assistance and communication facilities. Oil transfer from the wells to the separation and storage tanks usually occurs via pipelines in these fields. This whole system is prone to failures with significant and unpredictable environmental impacts. Therefore, properly monitoring this production system is vital to mitigate relevant problems such as leakages. This paper presents a comparative evaluation of the leading candidate communication networks for this application on onshore oil field monitoring for potential leaks. Among the analyzed technologies, LPWANS, DigiMesh, and CBRS stand out.

The present article discusses the development of the Jabuti Project, which consists of a micromouse, a maze solver robot. The project mainly aims to build a low-cost robot and to assist university students in the practical study of robotics. To solve the maze, a wall-follower algorithm was implemented for anarduino, and stepper motors constituted a PCB of the project to provide more stability to the robot, infrared sensors for area recognition, and a caster wheel to direct it. In conclusion, the circuit parts will be estimated to be assembled and integrated to implement the developed logic with tests in the physical prototype.

Pipelines are currently considered the safest means of transporting hydrocarbons. However, accidents with leaks in pipelines are still recurrent, despite safety regulations. Therefore, there is a need to detect these leaks efficiently and adapt to the environment in which it will be inserted. This article seeks to evaluate the possibilities that the ultrasonic technique presents for the detection of leaks in pipelines. An algorithm will be used to divide into steps and in order of importance, using concepts such as technical feasibility, suitability and capability. The method proves to be quite versatile, and promises to be very accurate, a great alternative for detecting leaks in long pipelines.

Onshore oil fields usually operate in remote locations without continuous human assistance and communication facilities. In these fields, the transfer of oil from the wells to the separation and storage tanks usually occurs via pipelines and this whole system is prone to failures with significant and unpredictable environmental impacts. Proper monitoring of this production system is important to mitigate relevant problems such as leakages, for instance. This paper presents a comparative evaluation of the main candidate communication networks for this application on onshore oil field monitoring for potential leaks. Among the analyzed technologies, LPWANS, DigiMesh and CBRS stand out.
