Abstract

The continuous monitoring of methane emissions from oil and gas infrastructure is low-hanging fruit in the effort to combat climate change and one way to address this is with low-cost, installed imaging systems. One such system completed comprehensive field testing in 2021 at the Methane Emissions Technology Evaluation Center (METEC) at Colorado State University. Here we present test procedures and blind test results from a novel scanning, multispectral imaging instrument. We address the multivariate nature of the detection classification task and present a sensitivity analysis against wind speed, range to the leak source and SNR of the imaging instrument.
