Yes, hyperspectral technology offers the spatial resolution needed to pinpoint distinct emission sources within a single site. With a typical spatial resolution of 25 cm per pixel, it enables equipment-level localization. This allows clients to quickly decide on the proper course of action. 

Yes, our methane service is able to reveal methane emissions from unlit flares. 

Hyperspectral imaging in the long-wave infrared (LWIR) region, such as the Telops Methane Airborne Detection Solution, operates based on the thermal infrared emission of gases and surfaces. The detection sensitivity thus depends on the temperature difference between the gas and background (also known as thermal contrast) as well as weather, sensor and aircraft parameters. In typical conditions, an emission rate detection sensitivity of 3 kg/hr with over 90% Probability of Detection (PoD) can be achieved. 

Our methane detection service can be deployed across the upstream and midstream sectors, including extraction, production, and processing sites, as well as transmission pipeline facilities.

Yes.  Our methane detection technology can be used to achieve your reduction requirements, whether it is EPA for the United States, the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, the EU regulation in Europe or everywhere around the world!

We know you need to be compliant to your regulation, wherever you are around the world.  By having us as a partner, you can be sure to have all the data you need for your certification: detailed flight inspection report, georeferenced high-resolution visible and infrared imagery, GPS pinpoints and times of identification with plume imagery, size, location, methane emission flux rates and more.

Not at all!  Hyperspectral imaging is completely safe for humans and also harmless to the environment.  

A hyperspectral camera can see hundreds of colors of light, including ones our eyes can’t see, like infrared light.  This is why we reveal the invisible! Now, methane gas absorbs and/or emits some of that infrared light at specific wavelengths corresponding to its molecular specificities (like a fingerprint).

Our camera will scan your facility and if methane is in the air, it will detect it and reveal where it is.  This technology really helps you being compliant quickly and efficiently.
 

No. We work with certified flight survey partners who will take care of all logistics. We’ve got you covered!
