AI-Powered Mobile Inspection App | PETRAN-Integrated Visual Assessment

Why use Mobile AI Inspection?

Modern operations demand fast, consistent, and auditable inspections. Ombrulla's mobile-first workflow lets inspectors capture photos and videos on-site while our AI Engine analyzes them against PETRAN checklists and asset reference images. Whether it's like-for-like visual comparison, condition assessment, or reading values from gauges and indicators, risks are flagged in real time and routed to the right people with rule-based actions—so you reduce downtime, standardize quality, and prove compliance effortlessly.

Business Benefits of Mobile AI Inspection App

Faster Decisions, Lower Downtime

AI turns raw visuals into immediate results—cut investigation time, accelerate maintenance, and keep assets running.

Standardized Quality Across Sites

Consistent, checklist-driven AI reviews eliminate subjectivity and human drift, improving compliance across regions.

Lower Inspection Costs

Fewer repeat visits and shorter inspection cycles translate to measurable OPEX savings without sacrificing rigor.

Risk Visibility & Audit Readiness

Every finding is traceable—images, AI verdicts, rules triggered, and actions taken—creating a defensible audit trail.

Industry-Specific Inspection Capabilities

Tailored AI detection across Oil & Gas, Construction, Maritime, and Utilities.

AI inspection in oil and gas to detect pipeline corrosion, leaks, dents, and monitor flare stack stability for safer operations.

Oil & Gas

Construction

Maritime

Hull & Coating Inspection: Detect fouling, corrosion, blistering, and paint degradation.
Lifeboat & Safety Gear Checks: Validate presence, integrity, and expiry indicators.
Engine Room Gauges: OCR of pressure/temperature dials with rule-based alarms.
Cargo Area Condition: Identify spills, lashings, and structural anomalies.

Utilities

Substation & Pole Inspection: Identify insulator cracks, hotspots (via thermal stills), and vegetation encroachment.
Meter & Panel Reading: Extract meter values and validate seal/tamper status.
Pipeline/Conduit Integrity: Spot corrosion, leaks, and improper supports.
Right-of-Way Compliance: Check clearance, signage, and access conditions.

Technical Capabilities & Functionalities

PETRAN-Linked Checklists & Reference Images

Create asset-specific checklists in PETRAN, attach reference images, and auto-sync to inspectors' mobile apps.

Multi-Mode Capture (Photo/Video/Burst)

Capture single shots, short clips, or burst sequences; AI processes frames to maximize detection reliability.

Visual Comparison & Condition Assessment

Frame-by-frame comparison against the asset's reference image to flag missing parts, damage, or misalignment.

Gauge/Indicator OCR with Rule Engine

Read analog/digital gauges, nameplates, and meters; trigger alerts, workflows, or action plans based on thresholds.

Offline-First Mobile & Smart Sync

Work without connectivity; secure local caching with conflict-safe sync when back online.

Action Plans, Work Orders & Notifications

Auto-generate actions in PETRAN or integrated CMMS/EAM; route to teams via email/push with due dates and SLAs.

Analytics & Continuous Model Improvement

Dashboards for defect trends, MTTR/MTBF impact, and false-positive tracking to continuously tune AI performance.

Enterprise-Grade Security & Compliance

Role-based access, encrypted at rest/in transit, full audit trails, and data residency options.

General Use Cases by Industry

Streamlined Inspection for High-Risk Assets

High-risk pipelines, tanks, and rotating equipment demand fast, repeatable checks to reduce downtime and environmental impacts—Ombrulla's AI mobile application standardizes visual evidence, gauge readings, and rule-based alerts across upstream, midstream, and downstream assets, even in low-connectivity sites through an offline-first Mobile Inspection App.

Corrosion & Coating Health

The Mobile AI Inspection pipeline flags rust, blistering, and paint failure on pipes and tanks from a single photo or short video.

Leak & Stain Detection

The AI Mobile App spots seepage and staining patterns that indicate early-stage leaks before they escalate.

Gauge & Valve Status

The mobile ai app OCRs analog/digital readings and verifies valve positions to trigger rule-based actions instantly.

Safety Compliance

The Mobile Inspection App confirms signage, barrier placement, and PPE adherence with time-stamped, auditable evidence.

AI Mobile Inspection Process

1

Plan & Configure

Design the Perfect Route Before You Roll

Set up your inspection once, run it everywhere. In PETRAN, define assets, routes, and standards-based checklists with clear pass/fail criteria and reference images that show what "good" looks like. Attach rules (thresholds, severities, SLAs), data types (photo, video, gauge OCR, barcode), and mandatory evidence. Map responsibilities, escalation paths, and integrations (e.g., CMMS/EAM) so every finding already knows where it's going.

Outcome

A repeatable, auditable inspection template that removes ambiguity in the field and speeds decisions later.

Faq

A Mobile AI Inspection solution lets field teams capture photos/videos on a Mobile Inspection App, while an AI mobile application analyzes them in real time to detect defects, read gauges, and trigger actions.

Inspectors sync asset-specific checklists and reference images from PETRAN to the AI Mobile App, capture evidence, and receive AI results (pass/fail, anomalies, gauge values) that create auditable records automatically.

The mobile ai app identifies corrosion, leaks, damage, PPE/safety issues, label/serial numbers, and OCRs analog or digital gauges—then applies rule logic for alerts and action plans.

Oil & Gas, Construction, Maritime, Utilities, Manufacturing, Facilities, Pharma, Mining, Transportation, Renewables, and Smart Cities use Mobile AI Inspection to standardize quality, speed decisions, and prove compliance.

Yes—using OCR and computer vision, the AI Mobile App extracts values from dials, meters, and panels, compares them to thresholds, and triggers rule-based notifications.

Yes—the Mobile Inspection App is offline-first; it stores checklists and media locally and syncs securely when connectivity returns.

Accuracy depends on image quality, lighting, and scenario complexity; Ombrulla tunes models with your reference images and continuously improves precision using feedback loops.

The AI mobile application uses encrypted storage and transport, role-based access, audit trails, and data-residency options to meet enterprise security and compliance needs.

Yes—Mobile AI Inspection integrates with PETRAN and common CMMS/EAM/ERP tools to auto-create work orders, SLAs, and notifications.

Rugged Android/iOS phones with good cameras are ideal; the mobile ai app supports photo/video capture, flash/torch, and barcode/QR where needed.

Results are generated in-app or shortly after sync; high-volume video is sampled for speed while preserving detection reliability.

You provide asset tags, PETRAN checklists, and reference images; Ombrulla configures models for comparison tasks, condition assessment, or value reading, plus rules for alerts and workflows.

Yes—the AI Mobile App processes video frames to improve detection confidence and reduce false negatives in dynamic scenes.

Common gains include shorter inspection cycles, fewer repeat visits, lower downtime, better compliance scores, and faster work-order closure.

Pricing typically reflects user count, model scope (e.g., gauge OCR vs. complex defects), data volume, and integration level; pilots help size ROI and rollout.
