The Intelligent Crude Oil Anti-theft System Based on IoT Under Different Scenarios

Oil theft always results in huge economic loss, human casualties, and extremely environmental pollution especially when the leaks from crude oil pipeline are not detected and repaired timely. In this paper, we focus on how to detect and monitor abnormal noise and vibration beforehand or in real time by the Internet of Things (IoT). Firstly, the diversities of crude oil theft and the difficulties of oil anti-theft are analyzed in China, and the requirement analysis of the IoT application is stated. Secondly, the intelligent anti-theft system based on the IoT is planned and designed for crude oil transportation by tank trucks and by oil pipelines according to the current situation in China. Thirdly, the problems of anti-theft system implementation are discussed, and the suggestions and advice are put forward to ensure that the system can be implemented successfully. The intelligent anti-theft system application can not only stop oil theft timely, but also prevent oil mice from stealing crude oil beforehand
