What We Do - Pipeline Patrol

This is the main focus of Hawkeye Helicopter. Pipeline patrols account for 70% of our annual workload and we log more than 1.5 million miles per year. Some of the biggest names in the pipeline industry trust us to fulfill their patrol needs. With so many clients and numerous contracts, we can provide a much more cost-effective patrol service than our competitors. Simply put, we don’t make our profit with one contract because our clients have the power to share cost with several other Hawkeye clients. When it comes to pipelines, Hawkeye is the premier aerial patrol company in the Midwest.

Fixed-Wing Patrols
Utilizing our fleet of small single-engine airplanes, our company provides a very cost-effective and efficient service. Fixed-wing patrols are quick, safe, and efficient. Our pilots are trained to detect leaks and encroachments on the ROW that may jeopardize the integrity of the pipe.

Rotor-Wing Patrols
Helicopter patrols provide a very detailed observation of the ROW. Pipeline personnel can fly as low and slow as needed. We also offer Light Detection and Ranging optical remote sensing technology called LIDAR. This system measures properties of scattered light to detect pipeline leaks and also provides digital pictures. Learn more about LIDAR here.
