Why It Matters

Beyond Substations: Addressing Methane Leaks for Safety and Efficiency

While often associated with natural gas infrastructure, methane (CH4) can be present in various industrial settings, including those adjacent to or part of utility operations where natural gas-fired generation or equipment may be present.

Methane leaks pose significant safety risks due to flammability and contribute to greenhouse gas emissions. Our specialized detection services help you identify and quantify these fugitive emissions, enhancing site safety and supporting your environmental goals.

Safety Hazard

Methane is highly flammable. Undetected leaks create risks for workers, surrounding communities, and equipment.

Greenhouse Gas Emissions

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas. Detecting and repairing leaks reduces your facility's environmental footprint and supports compliance goals.

Product Loss

Fugitive methane emissions represent lost product. Identifying and repairing leaks improves operational efficiency and reduces waste.

Detection Technology

Precision Methane Detection for Diverse Applications

We employ advanced optical gas imaging (OGI) cameras and other sensitive detection technologies specifically calibrated for methane. Our experienced technicians survey a wide range of components and areas tailored to your operational scope.

Pipelines

Comprehensive methane leak surveys along pipeline infrastructure using optical gas imaging to identify fugitive emissions at joints, connections, and along the line.

Valves and Fittings

Valves and fittings are common sources of fugitive emissions. Our OGI cameras detect leaks at connection points that may not be visible through conventional methods.

Storage Facilities

Detection surveys for gas storage infrastructure to identify leaks that can compromise safety and result in significant product loss over time.

Compressor Stations

Compressor stations present multiple potential leak points. We provide thorough surveys of all accessible components to identify and quantify fugitive emissions.

Actionable Reporting

Clear Reports That Drive Effective Repairs

We provide clear, actionable reports that pinpoint leak locations and estimate their severity, enabling prompt and effective repairs to mitigate risks and reduce emissions.

  • Pinpointed leak locations with visual documentation
  • Severity estimates for each identified leak
  • Compliance-ready documentation for your records
  • Actionable recommendations for repairs and mitigation
