Mission
We want to help petrochemical and energy companies to achieve optimal returns from their investments in assets in a responsible way for people and the environment.
Vision
We digitize the way assets are inspected and organizes the processes around inspection in a “smarter” way.
The data generated in this inspection process is interpreted and used in a way that our customers can operate their assets more safely and sustainably.

SABIC
SABIC Geleen is a leading player in the chemical industry, located in the south of the Netherlands.
The company operates its production facility at Geleen’s Chemelot Industrial Park: an enormous area, where numerous companies operate. The sheer size of the park and the complexity of operating in shared spaces can make it challenging for operators and contractors to locate the right pipelines, equipment, and storage tanks for inspection and maintenance. But that’s no longer the case, thanks to Falcker’s Site Explorer platform.
