Actionable insight on Worldwide oil inventories enabled by big data analytics

TankWatch

TankWatch provides a satellite-based approach to deliver frequent and regular information reports across global oil storage tanks sites, providing a unique insight into global oil inventories and reserves, tailored to meet the needs of oil traders and analysts.

Optimised Analytics

Geospatial Insight has developed a unique combination of satellite and big data analytics that enables us to provide unprecedented levels of accuracy.

We have access to the world’s largest constellation of high resolution, high frequency satellites which provide image capture to the centimetre. Other critical factors including time optimisation strategies, applied machine learning algorithms and geospatial expertise produce augmented analytics that support time-critical trading decisions.

Estimate Ahead of the Markets

Oil refineries are monitored on a continual basis enabling precise measurement and highly accurate insight into potential changes in global supply and demand. Investors use this valuable information to make improved, more agile trading decisions.

A variety of trading strategies can be employed from high frequency, front month trading to complex multi-strategy trades using a range of options. We will identify your exact requirement and tailor a specific monitoring strategy that creates competitive advantage for you.

Use TankWatch to:

Easily acquire measurements ahead of the markets
Identify the exact storage capacities of individual tanks anywhere in the world
Monitor capacities of all tanks across an entire site or multiple sites
Review historic site and tank storage volumes from 2010
Monitor sites to identify expansion or contraction

Why TankWatch?

TankWatch is the only information source that provides a true picture of storage volume dynamics through a combination of unique partnerships with satellite operators, industry-leading measurement techniques and profound knowledge of satellite data analytics.

We use the most appropriate method available to produce the results you need in a timely, consistently and accurate manner using satellite imagery of the highest resolution and quality to ensure highly accurate volume measurements per tank.
