Oil & Gas
Upstream · Midstream · Downstream
AER-approved emissions monitoring across the full oil & gas chain, from wellsite heaters to refinery stacks. It backs up physical CEMS, or stands in for it where approved.
Equipment Coverage
Industry Challenges
Problems We Solve
Remote & Distributed Sites
Compressor stations, wellsites, and gas plants are spread across vast areas, making physical CEMS maintenance costly and logistically challenging.
Multi-Stack Complexity
Large facilities operate dozens of emission sources simultaneously, from heaters to flares to thermal oxidizers, each requiring independent monitoring.
Fugitive & Vented Emissions
Beyond combustion sources, fugitive methane and routine venting create reporting obligations that traditional CEMS cannot address.
Capabilities
Oil & Solutions
Multi-Gas PEMS
Real-time predictive monitoring of NOₓ, CO, CO₂, SO₂, and VOCs from combustion sources using existing process sensors. No physical analyzers required.
Upstream Monitoring
Monitor flaring, venting, and combustion equipment emissions across gas plants, compressor stations, and well pads.
Midstream Operations
Fugitive emissions monitoring and compressor performance optimization with AI analytics, across pipeline compressor stations and processing plants.
Downstream Compliance
Multi-stack monitoring for refineries and petrochemical plants, with automated regulatory reporting for complex downstream operations.
Energy Optimization
Pair ES-PEMS™ with ES-OptiEnergy for closed-loop optimization. Reduce fuel consumption while maintaining emissions compliance targets.
Flare Monitoring
AI-powered flare combustion efficiency estimation and emissions quantification, replacing conservative emission factor approaches with real-time intelligence.
