1. Copyright Owner and Authorization
Copyright owner: HOCOL S.A.
Authorized representative: Telefónica Cybersecurity & Cloud Tech (Telefónica España).
Telefónica Cybersecurity & Cloud Tech is authorized to manage cybersecurity incidents, brand protection, and intellectual property enforcement on behalf of HOCOL S.A., under an official Letter of Authorization (LOA).
I am authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner in this matter.
2. Description of the Copyrighted Works
The copyrighted works at issue include original photographs owned by HOCOL S.A., depicting oil wells, oil-field equipment, and related operational locations.
These photographs are proprietary visual assets created or acquired by HOCOL S.A. and are protected by copyright. The original works are maintained in the company's image archive.
The copyrighted works may be identified by comparing the original photographs with the copies published in the reported GitHub repository.
3. Location of the Allegedly Infringing Material
Repository owner: SystemBlue7
Repository: HOCOL
Reported URL:
https://github.com/SystemBlue7/HOCOL/tree/main/PUNTOS
The reported directory contains photographs that appear to be copies of original copyrighted images belonging to HOCOL S.A.
4. Nature of the Copyright Infringement
The alleged infringement concerns the unauthorized reproduction, uploading, and public display of copyrighted photographs belonging to HOCOL S.A.
The images published in the reported repository are substantially identical to photographs contained in HOCOL S.A.'s original image archive.
The reported material reproduces the copyrighted photographic works themselves, rather than merely referring to HOCOL S.A. or using its brand name.
HOCOL S.A. has not authorized the repository owner to reproduce, distribute, or publicly display these photographs on GitHub.
The alleged infringement therefore involves the unauthorized copying and publication of protected photographic works.
5. Identification of the Material to Be Removed
The allegedly infringing material is located in the following GitHub directory:
https://github.com/SystemBlue7/HOCOL/tree/main/PUNTOS
This directory contains multiple image files depicting HOCOL's operational infrastructure, oil-field facilities, wells, equipment, and related locations.
The files are published under the directory of PUNTOS in the main branch of the reported repository, as illustrated by the repository's publicly accessible file listing.
The reported material includes, among others, image files with names such as:
Bogota Torre Samsung.png
Colombia Norte Arrecife 4.jpeg
Colombia Norte Arrecife Norte.jpeg
Colombia Norte Arrecife Pozo Coralino 1 y 2.jpeg
Colombia Norte Cicuco 15.png

Llanos Bunker 2.png
Llanos Bunker 3.png

These filenames are provided as examples of the image files visible in the reported directory and are not intended to represent an exhaustive list.
The complaint concerns the unauthorized reproduction and public display of copyrighted photographic works owned by HOCOL S.A., rather than the mere use of corporate names or references to its facilities.
We request that GitHub review the image files contained in this directory and remove or disable access to those that reproduce HOCOL S.A.'s copyrighted photographs without authorization.
6. Copyright Status and Authorization
The copyrighted photographs are not distributed under an open-source license, and no authorization has been granted to the repository owner to publish or reproduce them.
The copyright owner has not consented to the use of these photographs in the reported repository.
7. Requested Action
We respectfully request that GitHub review the reported material under its DMCA takedown process and remove or disable access to the identified infringing photographs.
We are submitting this revised notice in response to your request to consolidate the original claim and the additional information into a single, complete notification.
8. Good Faith Statement
I have a good faith belief that the use of the copyrighted material described above is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
I have considered whether the reported use may qualify as fair use or otherwise be legally permitted.
9. Statement Under Penalty of Perjury
I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the exclusive rights allegedly infringed.
