AGIP Selects S3 ID Personnel Safety Solution Based on Ubisense for the World's Largest Geographic Deployment of a Real-time Personnel Location and Mustering System in Kazakhstan PR Newswire CAMBRIDGE, England, August 30, 2012 CAMBRIDGE, England, August 30, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Ubisense, a market leader in location-based smart technology, today announces that S3 ID, its partner in the oil and gas industry, has entered into an agreement with AGIP to deploy an integrated personnel security system at its facility in Kazakhstan. The solution, which uses unique technology from Ubisense, will play an important role in creating and maintaining the safety and security of personnel at the facility. In all cases of a major incident in a hazardous environment, it is crucial for the emergency response service to know exactly who was present on the facility at the time of the incident and exactly who is accounted for after the incident, usually at muster points, so that any persons unaccounted for may be searched for and rescued. The system being selected by AGIP will enable this information to be available instantaneously at multiple locations on and off site, ensuring enhanced personnel safety and security. S3 ID, working with the unique Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) solutions from Ubisense, works with organisations that have personnel working in hazardous environments to provide real-time personnel location awareness, mustering and access control of safety and security solutions.
