HSINCHU, Taiwan, and SON, The Netherlands - September 30, 2015 -The Egyptian General Petroleum Corporation (EGPC) is the national oil company of Egypt. Founded in 1956, EGPC has explored and researched more than 25 oil and gas fields throughout the region. EGPC's IT department and onsite team must secure their oil and gas sites in addition to protect and secure the premises of their headquarters in Cairo with a strong security system that offers incredible reliability and performance. HitekNOFAL Solutions, the trusted system integrator for EGPC, was tasked with the job of providing a cost effective, energy efficient and resilient surveillance solution. They turned to PROMISE Technology, Aimetis and Axis Communications for the end-to-end system it delivered to EGPC.

PROMISE Technology develops innovative solutions for the video surveillance market, including Vess A2000 NVR storage appliances. Aimetis is a global leader in intelligent video management solutions for security surveillance and business intelligence applications and Axis Communications offers intelligent security solutions and is the global market leader in network video.

HitekNOFAL helped EGPC install high-end indoor and outdoor fixed and pan-tilt-zoom cameras (PTZ cameras) from Axis. Additionally, there are a range of motion sensors connected to EGPC's light system to light-up the areas efficiently for the cameras to record. The PROMISE Vess A2600 high-end NVR storage appliance is used as the core management and recording solution for the whole system. The Video Management Software (VMS) solution is provided by Aimetis which includes embedded video analytics.

Vess NVR appliances and external storage solutions work together seamlessly with Aimetis Symphony VMS and the portfolio of cameras from Axis for IP video surveillance. Additionally, Aimetis Symphony is also verified with Vess A2600, ensuring optimized performance and interoperability.
