The MethaneSAT team has been conducting flights, testing equipment, and gathering methane data with sensors installed on a jet aircraft.

These flights validate, refine and showcase our revolutionary new approach to methane detection and quantification.

We can see not only where methane is coming from, but also how large emissions are and how much is leaking over time.

The first MethaneAIR flights took place over the Permian Basin in August 2021 .

The initial flight covered over 9,000 square miles in just 2.2 hours.

Flights produced oil and gas methane emissions data with greater clarity and speed than ever before.

Now we can quantify emissions over large areas of interest, including the basin and sub-basin level.

Data users can access multiple types of measurements, and deploy solutions in the places where methane volumes are highest.
