Survey methods like drones, flyovers and OGI all just capture a snapshot of emissions at a point in time.
As a result, they miss intermittent events which can be >50% of total emissions, and which are often short duration (many <1 hour).
In addition, satellite lacks sensitivity and can be blocked by local weather conditions.
Many continuous monitoring methods detect but struggle to quantify, making accurate assessment of baseline and ongoing emissions impossible.
Point sensor networks can also have high false positives, triggering unnecessary follow-ups.
And short-range methane imaging systems can mean lots of sensors are needed to cover a facility.
Many methods still need expensive skilled personnel, are disruptive to normal operations or result in islanded data.
Some still produce paper reports.
In an industry driving hard at digital solutions to automate operations, improve productivity and enhance workforce safety, this feels like the past not the future.
