Abstract

Methods and apparatus are presented herein for detecting an oilfield equipment unit of an oilfield wellsite from a visible image, overlaying the detected oilfield equipment unit of the visible image on a corresponding portion of a thermal image, and generating an alert when a temperature indicated by the corresponding portion of the thermal image is outside of an operational temperature range of the detected oilfield equipment unit. The methods and apparatus presented herein facilitate the monitoring of the health of oilfield equipment units that would otherwise be monitored by numerous sensors disposed about the oilfield wellsite.
