MethaneTrack

Core Features

MethaneTrack is built around a continuous monitoring methodology that combines Industrial IoT sensor networks with cloud-based analytics. By placing sensors close to potential emission sources, the platform focuses on detecting and quantifying methane leaks with high temporal resolution rather than relying on periodic inspections. Key features include:

• Continuous emissions monitoring – Provides automated monitoring of methane and methane-blend emissions across assets, eliminating the need for manual inspection campaigns.

• Real-time localisation and quantification – Uses distributed sensors and analytics to determine the location, size, and duration of emission events, enabling operators to prioritise repairs.

• Automated alerts and prioritisation – Immediately notifies operators of detected leaks, including information on emission volume, helping teams respond quickly and focus on the largest sources.

• Cloud-based analytics and reporting – Aggregates data from multiple sites into a central platform, supporting emissions tracking, trend analysis, and generation of compliance-ready reports.

• Industrial IoT sensor network – Deploys wireless, low-maintenance sensors across sites to detect both fugitive and operational emissions, with scalable configurations for different asset types.

• Regulatory and LDAR support – Supports frameworks such as OGMP 2.0 by enabling measurement-based emissions reporting, automated LDAR workflows, and site-level quantification.

Closing Insights

MethaneTrack originates from NevadaNano’s broader development of gas sensing technologies based on its proprietary Molecular Property Spectrometer™ platform, which underpins its approach to continuous emissions monitoring. The software is positioned within the company’s wider portfolio of industrial IoT and cloud-based analytics tools designed for safety and climate applications.

The platform is used by energy operators across upstream, midstream, downstream, and offshore environments, including large oil and gas companies deploying it across multiple regions and assets. These users apply MethaneTrack to address different carbon accounting and operational needs, from identifying high-emission assets to supporting methane intensity tracking and regulatory reporting.

Recent developments, particularly the release of MethaneTrack™ 2.0, introduce enhanced measurement algorithms, expanded automated reporting, and compatibility with hydrogen and methane-blend systems. The platform has also been recognised through initiatives such as AT&T’s Gigaton program, with emissions reductions independently assessed by the Carbon Trust.
