A snapshot of the Leak Detection System computer screen. The real-time map on the left shows the route the vehicle has taken (green line) and the methane leaks detected by the system (red circles). On the right of the photo, the methane (red line), hydrocarbon (green line) and carbon dioxide (blue line) concentrations are plotted in real time.

System Features

• An innovative method for detecting leaks from hydrocarbon liquids and gas pipelines, production and storage facilities, landfills, and coal-seam seeps
• Measures methane, total hydrocarbons and carbon dioxide simultaneously at sub-ppm concentrations
• Monitoring rates of 50 samples/second
• Leak locations determined by GPS
• Software allows for immediate processing of data
• Can be mounted on helicopters or ground vehicles for either aerial or ground leak detection services
