Development of a Promising Area of Diversification in Helicopter Industry

Summary/Abstract: Many countries have main pipeline systems that deliver hydrocarbon deposits from fields to their places of consumption and for export. Pipelines during operation require constant maintenance, industrial safety monitoring, repair, and protection. An accident there entails significant loss of product, additional financial costs, tangible environmental damage, and, in some cases, loss of life. To prevent it, it is necessary to use various types of monitoring, including aerospace. In addition to existing control methods, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) of a helicopter type with a long flight range can become a modern high-tech tool for solving problems of monitoring main pipelines. For a helicopter manufacturing enterprise, this is a new perspective area in diversifying its production and commercial activities.
