Popis: This paper presents the development of a real-time gas monitoring system with alerts transmitted to the office domain, and the team leads whenever the gases are detected. The system monitors the presence of the hazardous H2S gas. It sends signals to the control room in the manned plants so that operators can take the necessary precautions when stepping into these locations. It also sends alerts to the office domains when the permit to work is being prepared for any facility. It provides a continuous real-time update of the gas present in the location to a cloud-based platform. This is beneficial as it will enable plant operators to take the necessary precautions to both protect themselves and also protect the facilities if the gas discharge spreads across the plant's zone classifications
