Oil Field and Well Site Security Cameras
Virtual Protective secures remote oil field sites, well pads and pipe yards with 100% solar camera units that need no power on location. AI threat detection watches 24/7, intruders trigger sirens and strobes, and our USA command center dispatches police — with license plate photos for evidence.
The risks at remote energy sites
No power, no people
Remote pads and yards sit unattended for long stretches with no utility power.
Equipment and pipe theft
Tools, pipe, copper and fuel are high-value and easy to haul off.
Long response times
By the time anyone notices, thieves are long gone.
Compliance
Operators need NDAA-compliant, USA-built equipment.
Recommended setup
Solar towers give visible deterrence at pad entrances, while compact solar units cover pipe yards and equipment. Everything runs off-grid, and the Live View app lets your team check any site from the field office. We work hand in hand with your company’s private security team, can partner with local guard companies when you want boots on the ground, and coordinate with sheriff’s offices and other responding authorities in the area.
Oil & gas security questions
Do your cameras work at remote sites with no power?
Yes. Our solar units run 100% off-grid with battery storage.
Is your equipment NDAA compliant?
Yes. All units are USA built, NDAA compliant and monitored from a USA command center.
Do remote sites need cell coverage?
Our units connect over cellular networks. Where signal is weak or unavailable, we can add Starlink satellite connectivity at an additional cost.
Can you work with our security team and local law enforcement?
Yes. We coordinate with your company’s private security, partner with local guard companies when needed, and work alongside sheriff’s offices and other responding authorities in the area.
Do you serve the Permian Basin and West Texas?
Yes. We serve the Permian Basin and West Texas and can usually deploy within one week.
