Estimated read time 2 min read

PANAMA CITY, PANAMA (Piero Stewart, Energy Analytics Institute, 23.Jan.2025) — UK-based Salunda, founded in 2013 and involved in providing digitized solutions for safety critical industries, integrated its Red Zone monitoring solutions on 4 drilling rigs in Guyana.

The digitalized solutions utilize Intellilift’s proven digital technologies to deliver automated location and control of critical equipment and personnel, Salunda said 23 Jan. 2025 in an official statement.

The collaboration – on assets belonging to a major offshore drilling contractor – marks the world’s first deployment of a real-time digital interface between wearable sensors, drilling controls and moving machinery to provide instant alerts to workers. This advanced digital interface streams precise machine location, velocity and status in real-time, according to Salunda. 

The safety measures function by integrating Intellilift’s platform with Salunda’s CrewHawk, a system that provides a low latency digital interface through Salunda’s proprietary Motion Trigger and Equipment Status (MTES) module.

CrewHawk monitors hazardous working environments to track individuals and equipment while Intellilft’s platform provides a digital interface to the drilling automation suite, including position and status of all operational machinery, Salunda said.

“Salunda’s Hawk Analytics platform, which enables users to scrutinize data, generate trends and display heatmaps showing where violations are clustered and around which machines they are most common. Reports can then be used to coach crews and adapt working practices to bolster safety,” Salunda said in the statement.
