New laser-based system can locate small methane leaks in an area of several square miles

Methane leaks in oil and gas production sites will soon be unable to escape notice. Colorado-based researchers are validating a laser-based spectroscopy technique that can “sniff” out the tiniest emissions over several square miles. According to a ScienceDaily article, the new system can monitor its assigned areas nonstop. The current approach to detecting methane emissions involves on-site […]
