Gas Leak Detection

Undetected gas leaks pose serious risks to safety, the environment, and regulatory compliance. Traditional leak detection methods can be time-consuming, costly, and hazardous to personnel. In today's heightened regulatory environment, identifying and mitigating fugitive emissions has become a critical operational and compliance priority.

Solutions for Gas Leak Detection

Aerial OGI Inspections

Our Optical Gas Imaging technology visualizes otherwise invisible gas emissions:

  • Wide-Area Coverage:

    We rapidly inspect extensive facilities and infrastructure in a fraction of the time required for ground-based surveys

  • Component-Level Precision:

    Our high-resolution imaging pinpoints specific leaking components, valves, and connections

  • Visual Documentation:

    We provide clear video evidence of emission sources that eliminates ambiguity in repair planning and compliance reporting

FLIR Thermal Imaging

Our approach combines specialized thermal imaging with expert interpretation:

  • Temperature Differential Analysis:

    We identify subtle temperature variations that indicate gas plumes invisible to standard cameras

  • Tank Emission Detection:

    Our specialized techniques for monitoring storage tank emissions have proven particularly valuable for compliance with Quad Oa requirements

  • Equipment Diagnostics:

    Beyond gas detection, we identify overheating components that signal potential mechanical issues before they lead to failures
