A device and method for monitoring an environmental condition. The device is provided with a sensor arranged to collect environmental data S1. A processor is configured to analyse the collected environmental data using a combination of pattern recognition and artificial intelligence S2 to obtain an environmental condition value. The processor is further arranged to take a further action S3 in the event that the environmental condition value exceeds a predetermined environmental condition value. This allows an environmental condition to be monitored without the need for human intervention or periodic checking. The sensor may be some form of camera, with preprocessing to remove noise. The environment may be an abandoned hydrocarbon well, underwater, and the device monitors for corrosion, leakage, damage, oil drops in water, gas bubbles in water, or fish. The device may have a transmitter, floating on the surface of the water. |
