Blackline Safety Corp., a global pioneer in connected safety technology, announced its largest contract to date – an $8.5 million deal to protect 1,025 workers at a major North American midstream company.

1,025 G7 wearable devices

The contract expands the company’s original $3.5 million deal with Blackline, announced in September 2023 to protect more than 850 workers. Combined with the previous deal, Blackline devices protect all of the company’s nearly 2,000 field and site workers.

The midstream company purchased 1,025 G7 wearable gas-detection and lone worker devices, along with monitoring services. It also purchased 753 G7 Bridges to keep workers connected in remote areas via satellite.

Gas detection and lone worker devices

The G7’s ability to tell them immediately when and where someone needs help sealed the deal

Before the first deal, the midstream company performed a comprehensive review of all available gas detection and lone worker devices, and Blackline came out on top.

The G7’s ability to tell them immediately when and where someone needs help, even in confined spaces and remote locations with no cellular signal, sealed the deal and the company moved to standardise Blackline across their organisation.

Real-time connectivity

We’re thrilled Blackline has become the preferred safety tech provider for this major midstream customer,” said Sean Stinson, Blackline Safety President and Chief Growth Officer.

He adds, “Our devices are unique in the market, no other gas detection company provides real-time connectivity even in remote areas. Workers are never alone when they have Blackline at their side.”

G7 features

G7 features SOS latch, fall, no motion detection, and real-time connectivity

The award-winning wearable G7 with features, such as SOS latch, fall, no motion detection, and real-time connectivity provides a critical lifeline in case of emergency. 

When pairing G7x devices with G7 Bridge, which provides satellite connectivity in remote areas or regions with poor cellular connectivity, even the most remote workers are connected in real time.

Largest contract

This announcement is the largest in Blackline’s history, topping the $7.8 million utility industry announcement made in late 2021.

These large, enterprise deals demonstrate the depth of Blackline’s market acceptance across a variety of verticals as customers around the world realise the value of Blackline’s life-saving technology.
