The energy sector around the world face many production challenges, including fires, explosions and gas leaks which can cause major incidents & financial losses

DUBAI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, July 2, 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The oil, gas and power industries implement various measures to avoid major asset failures and disasters. However, pipeline explosions or leaks, plant explosions, gas leaks, transformer explosions, electricity short circuits and other incidents are not unheard of and happen all around the world. These disasters have multiple implications for operating companies, including major financial losses and tarnished reputations.
