Safer and More Efficient Shutdowns and Turnarounds

Written by Blackline Safety | April 6, 2023

Millions of workers enter confined spaces as part of their job duties every day. Unfortunately, these spaces can be extremely hazardous, with limited visibility and communication, as well as hazardous atmospheres and limited entry/egress.

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reports that in the United States, two or more people die every week from bodily injuries sustained from confined space incidents (BLS).

Traditionally, monitoring confined spaces has been costly, labor-intensive, and inefficient, often prone to human error. However, Blackline Safety and InfoSignal have joined forces to create a Digital Confined Space Management (DCSM) system that brings a new level of safety and cost effectiveness to industrial worksites. This system integrates real-time gas monitoring, cameras, access control, ventilation equipment, and two-way communications, offering a complete solution to remotely monitor a greater number of confined spaces simultaneously with fewer operators.

It provides a flexible solution to increase safety, streamline operations, and delivers cost savings of up to 30%.
