Petroleum & Chemical Plant Security

Petroleum and chemical processing facilities carry a great number of security risks beyond simple theft of tools or equipment. Substantial liability issues can arise related to hazardous chemicals that go missing and cannot be accounted for. A good security service can go a long way in preventing both employees and outsiders from stealing sensitive materials from your facility.
A security system also makes an excellent tool for enforcing safety protocols. Using cameras and other technology, safety violations can be detected and corrected before they lead to a catastrophic incident. Employees also tend to adhere more strictly to proper protocols when they know their actions can be easily observed or are being recorded.
Because of the volatile nature of the materials both used and produced in petroleum and chemical plants, the risk of sabotage by terrorists and others can be significant. Having guards on-site with specific training relevant to the industry can make an enormous difference in preventing or mitigating a deliberate attack on your facility.
