Funded Activity Summary

Laser Airborne Methane Sensor. Fugitive emissions of methane represent a significant economic loss to the natural gas industry. This project aims to develop a new laser based methane sensing platform for deployment on fixed wing aircraft. This aims to allow the spatial concentration of methane to be mapped rapidly over a broad area with unprecedented spatial resolution allowing sources to be rapidly identified and the gas captured for economic benefit. The testing of this system on an airborne platform is possible in this timeframe because of the plan to modify an existing system provided by the Partner Organisation.
