Global Emissions Monitoring

Who we are

GHGSat provides global emissions monitoring services, currently for greenhouse gases and ultimately also for air quality and other trace gases from a wide range of sources. Find out more about us.

What we do

You give us the geographic coordinates of any site in the world, and we will task our platforms (satellite or aircraft) to measure gas concentrations at that site, within days of your request. We then use these and other data to deliver unique analysis of the site, such as emission rates, trends, and leak alerts.

GHGSat Unveils New
Satellite Imagery

This image was taken in In August 2018, by GHGSat’s
demonstration satellite Claire, over two years after her launch in June 2016. GHGSat detected emissions of methane, an important greenhouse gas, from an oil & gas facility in the Permian Basin.

Claire captures an array of over 200,000 atmospheric measurements around an industrial facility in a few seconds. These measurements are processed to produce imagery showing a “heat map” of greenhouse gas concentrations from the facility.

GHGSat is committed to making more sample data available for evaluation by qualified parties. For more details, please email info@ghgsat.com

Patented Technology:
How it Works

Monitoring

GHGSat satellites measure any site in the world, within days. GHGSat aircraft sensors are dispatched to high-value areas, on demand.

Data Processing

GHGSat’s technology measures the absorption of light with very high resolution in spectral bands for gases of interest

Products & services

GHGSat delivers raw measurements of gas concentrations and value-added analyses of these measurements using proprietary algorithms

Drawing on @CopernicusEU #Sentinel5P data, our #satellite Claire can pinpoint methane sources, attributing large leaks to specific facilities. Since 2016, Claire has collected 60,000 #methane measurements globally. Read more in this @esa @ESA_EO article: https://t.co/p5I6B3ZjqW https://t.co/bWLW8IICMe

GHGSat has teamed up with @esa and @csa_asc to make 5% of our data from Iris, our #emissions-detecting #satellite, freely available for research purposes. Iris will offer a 25m spatial resolution to pinpoint #methane leaks to specific facilities globally. https://t.co/JUvEco9HMn

Get the insights on The limits and constraints of applicable laws with regards to the #EO sector. @argilles participates in the panel discussion July 29th at 11am CET as part of Building Trust in the Digital Economy Workshop https://t.co/kyG5piE6fj via...

Our #satellite GHGSat-C2 known as 'Hugo' has successfully completed its payload assembly with our partner @ABBgroupnews and is now with @SFL_SmallerSats ready for integration with the spacecraft. Hugo is our 3rd #methane #emissions hunting satellite. https://t.co/ZixfWzWuVO https://t.co/Hxf1kbNvPP

Good luck to all our fellow @kcurveprize finalists tonight. GHGSat is proud to be recognised as one of the innovations with the potential to make a real difference to reducing greenhouse gases. Excited to join you all at the awards...

From the #environment to the #financial markets, small #satellites are answering the demand for more data. Thanks Sarrah R for acknowledging GHGSat as an operator & innovator on greenhouse gas emissions monitoring. Listen in to @BloombergNEF podcast here. https://t.co/5dEyRHVXYV https://t.co/rKedBOOxKj

Excited to be named a finalist in @kcurveprize for our #satellite #emissions monitoring technology. Together, GHGSat satellites will give the most accurate ever picture of global #methane emissions. Join us for the awards ceremony Monday night. https://t.co/MdluUHr5mV #KCP2020 https://t.co/0nObMEK8yy
