Abstract

A system including a rig site with at least one pollution control system located on the rig site. The pollution control system is configured to modify an output of light, noise, or vibrations from the rig site to an environment surrounding the rig site. Additionally, the pollution control system may include at least one active noise cancellation device, at least one active vibration cancellation device, and/or at least one active light control system to modify the light, noise, or vibrations.

Claims (14)

1. A system, comprising:

a rig site; and

at least one pollution control system located on the rig site and configured to modify an output of light, noise, or vibrations from the rig site to an environment surrounding the rig site,

wherein the at least one pollution control system comprises at least one active light control system configured to control a light from the rig site based on light data received from a light measurement system and/or rig control system.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the light measurement system and/or rig control system includes one or more sensors configured to gather the light data, wherein the light measurement system and/or rig control system determines optimal light usage and minimize light pollution.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the rig site comprises at least one light reflector.

4. The system of claim 1 , further comprising a light focused illumination device disposed on a light fixture to project the light from the light fixture in a target direction.

5. A method, comprising:

determining at least one of light, noise, or vibrations generated from a rig site; and

modifying an output of the light, noise, or vibrations from the rig site to an environment surrounding the rig site and/or within the rig site,

wherein the modifying comprises controlling a light from the rig site with at least one active light control system, wherein the active light control system receives light data from a light measurement system and/or rig control system to control the light.

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein determining optimal light usage and minimizing light pollution is based on the light data gathered from one or more sensors.

7. The method of claim 6 , further comprising reflecting the light with at least one light reflector disposed on the rig site.

8. The method of claim 5 , wherein controlling the light comprises projecting the light from a light fixture in a target direction with a light focused illumination device disposed on the light fixture.
