Officials from Permian operator Occidental Petroleum recently said their decision to use a methane emissions management system from SensorUp “aligns with Oxy’s net zero targets and helps advance our low carbon business objectives.” Calgary-based SensorUp developed its gas emissions management solution (GEMS), a data integration platform for methane leak detection and repair, measurement reconciliation, reporting and verification of methane emissions. SensorUp received $12 million in funding led by Climate Investment and Evok Innovations.
Richard Jackson, Occidental’s president of operations for U.S. onshore resources and carbon management, said, “We are committed to reducing methane emissions in our operations… Our teams will use SensorUp GEMS to help accelerate leak detection and repair while moving toward more measurement-based emissions inventories.”
