Method And System For Acoustic Monitoring And Pattern Recognition In Hydrocarbon Management Activities

A computer system, comprising:

• a non-transitory, computer-readable medium;
• and
• a processor in communication with the non-transitory, computer-readable medium, the processor programmed to perform instructions stored on the non-transitory, computer-readable medium to identify hydrocarbon production information by
• identifying a characteristic acoustic fingerprint of a first audio signal detected in a first hydrocarbon management environment;
• storing, in the non-transitory, computer-readable medium, the characteristic acoustic fingerprint of the first audio signal and identifying information associated with the first audio signal;
• identifying a characteristic acoustic fingerprint of a second audio signal detected in a second hydrocarbon management environment;
• determining whether the characteristic acoustic fingerprint of the second audio signal matches the characteristic acoustic fingerprint of the first audio signal;
• if the characteristic acoustic fingerprint of the second audio signal matches the characteristic acoustic fingerprint of the first audio signal, assigning the identifying information associated with the first audio signal to the second audio signal;
• and
• issuing a notification regarding the matching of the characteristic acoustic fingerprints of the first and second audio signals.
