Review internal geometry
Discuss tanks, enclosed structures and other difficult internal areas with your site team. Access size, obstructions and the recovery plan determine what can be attempted.
Confined spaces.
A closer perspective.
Confined-space drone inspection in Kuwait with Orbit’s Flyability Elios 3. Discuss internal asset visibility, access, coverage and useful inspection records.

THE USE CASE
See inside without assuming every space is suitable.
Orbit owns and operates the Flyability Elios 3 for suitable confined and GPS-denied inspection environments. For asset owners in Kuwait, the first step is a feasibility discussion: the access opening, internal geometry, atmosphere, visibility and what must be recorded. A protective cage helps the aircraft work close to structures; it does not make every internal environment safe for flight.
Discuss this serviceKeep the inspection record usable
Agree a coverage plan and a naming or location-reference system so the asset reviewer can understand where each observation belongs.
Separate imaging from measurement
Define visual documentation first. Surveying or ultrasonic-thickness applications require the appropriate confirmed package, procedure and acceptance criteria.
WHAT YOU RECEIVEPrepared for
Prepared for
your workflow.
Coverage, formats and intended use are agreed before capture.
- Agreed internal inspection coverage
- Recorded visual evidence from accessible areas
- Asset references and capture notes
- Coverage limitations and areas not reached
- Specialist outputs only where separately scoped and confirmed

BEFORE WE BEGINA few useful
A few useful
answers.
Does Orbit operate the Elios 3?
Yes. Orbit owns and operates Flyability Elios 3. Share the asset and inspection objective so we can discuss a suitable capture scope and equipment configuration.
Can the drone fly in any tank or confined space?
No. The asset operator must confirm appropriate site conditions and access arrangements. Atmosphere, contamination, temperature, dust, liquids, internal obstacles and signal conditions all affect feasibility. The cage is not a substitute for a site-specific assessment.
Are LiDAR surveys and thickness measurements included?
They are not assumed in every inspection. Tell us whether you need spatial surveying, visual evidence or thickness readings. The fitted package, processing, operator workflow and reporting requirements must be confirmed for that scope.
Can this eliminate all human entry?
Drone imagery may help an asset team review some areas remotely, but it does not remove every need for physical access, specialist testing or maintenance. The site team determines what further work is required.
How do we start?
Share the location, timing and intended use in a project enquiry. We will discuss coverage and delivery with you before a capture plan is agreed.
