Two of Precision Drilling’s rigs were upgraded in two phases, with phase 01 comprising an upgrade from conventional bi-fuel systems on three generators to the latest Dynamic Gas Blending® (DGB) systems. The DGB system was then paired with a Smart Engine Management System (SEMS), allowing automatic start and stop generators. Phase 02 included the addition of three Caterpillar lean burn …
GHGSat launched its first methane detection satellite in 2016 and now has 12 satellites in orbit, including its first carbon dioxide detection satellite, launched in November 2023. Each satellite uses patented infrared detection technology. Detection thresholds have improved 10-fold since 2016 and are currently reported as being ~ 4,000 m3/day or 100 kg CH4/hr.
‘Canary X’ is Project Canary’s most widely deployed methane monitoring system. Canary X uses a Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) sensor, which can detect methane concentrations below ambient levels.
