WatchDog is the big dog when it comes to PIPE leak detection
Our Injection System & Pipeline Leak Detection solution helps you catch leaks early and avoid major spills, and environmental & reputational damage.
Solution overview
Effective leak detection protects your reputation and reduces cleanup expenses.
We know that your reputation is now tied to much more than just production levels or stock prices. There’s an enormous responsibility to be responsible stewards of the environment. In fact, it’s fair to say that limiting leaks and leak-related damage directly correlates to the social licence to operate as a producer. Leaks can do incredible damage. So, we help you avoid them.
Our Injection System & Pipeline Leak Detection solution is the industry’s simplest, most cost-effective way for producers to reduce the frequency and impact of leaks. Protect the environment, your operation, and your reputation – all with the Virtual Wellsite Visit by WatchDog.
IDENTIFY LEAKS EARLY
Without WatchDog, you’d need to physically visit a wellsite to identify leaks. By then what could have been a small leak might have turned into a costly and environmentally damaging event. Now you can get up-to-date notifications on leaks, remotely.
Save time
We’re all about saving time for field operators. With our remote monitoring capabilities, you’ll always know if your wells are leaking or not – whether you’re on-site, on-the-road, or back at the office.
Protect your reputation and social licence
It’s simple. WatchDog helps you protect your company’s reputation by catching leaks early. No major leaks? No reputational damage.
AVOID MAJOR CLEANUP COSTS
Big leaks create big cleanup costs. With WatchDog, you can more easily avoid the cleanup costs that come from environmentally damaging events.

Frequently asked questions about injection system leak detection
How can WatchDog’s Injection System & Pipeline Leak Detection solution benefit my business?
WatchDog’s solution helps you catch leaks early, avoiding major spills and minimizing environmental and reputational damage. Effective pipeline leak detection protects your company’s reputation and reduces cleanup expenses.
What is the difference between traditional wellsite monitoring and remote or virtual wellsite monitoring?
Traditional wellsite monitoring typically requires long days of driving and site wellsite checks. Manual site visits take up a lot of time for field operators and pumpers – it’s often 50% of their jobs – and all those miles create potential safety issues. Bad weather. Dangerous roads. We help you keep your team safer and free up their time.
What are the benefits of WatchDog?
With WatchDog you have eyes on every wellsite, all the time. Leaks and negative environmental events can be catastrophic to the reputation of its business. And that’s before you consider the costs of unplanned downtime and cleanup. WatchDog helps reduce the frequency and impact of environmental issues. WatchDog also reduces drive time to improve safety for field operators and pumpers – and frees them to focus on the site work that matters most.
Where does WatchDog serve customers? What locations?
The AFTI WatchDog team serves customers across North America and we’re always exploring new markets. Our team is based out of Calgary and Houston and we do implementation and training on site everywhere our customers operate.
Can I expect ongoing innovation from WatchDog?
With over a decade of experience in delivering Virtual Wellsite Visits, we are continuously innovating for Injection System & Pipeline Monitoring. When you partner with us, you can count on ongoing advancements and a product adoption process that maximizes the benefits of our detection solutions.
