Satellite sensors detect methane and CO2 emissions from individual industrial facilities anywhere on Earth. This article covers how satellite greenhouse gas monitoring works, which systems are currently active, and how combined public and private satellite data delivers layered emissions intelligence for operators, regulators, and investors.
When the Nord Stream pipelines exploded beneath the Baltic Sea in 2022, conventional monitoring had no answer. GHGSat satellites did, delivering the first independent methane quantification of the incident within 24 hours, over open water, in findings significant enough to be published in Nature. This case study documents how satellite monitoring of critical infrastructure responded when it mattered most.
How SOCAR used satellite methane monitoring to detect and mitigate 100% of emissions across 7 upstream assets in Azerbaijan. Read the case study.
At GHGSat, our mission has always been to make methane emissions visible, measurable, and actionable. That mission began in space, but it has never been confined to it. Our Gen2 aircraft sensor represents the same commitment to precision that defines everything we do, with higher performance and finer resolution.
120 UK organizations gained direct access to satellite methane data for the first time. See what they found and how it changed the way they work.
APA Group needed to verify methane emissions across thousands of kilometers of gas transmission infrastructure. See what a single aerial campaign revealed.
The Global Methane Pledge is an international effort to reduce methane emissions by at least 30% by 2030.
TotalEnergies controlled a blind methane release at their facility in France. GHGSat's satellite had to find it. See what happened.
When it comes to methane emissions, landfill emissions present a unique and persistent challenge. GHGSat’s satellites detected emissions in nearly 70% of landfill site visits; at least one emission is detected—a stark reminder of the scale of the problem.
GHGSat provided high-resolution satellite emissions data to Orbital Eye to integrate into their pipeline monitoring service as part of an innovative project led by the National Gas Company of Trinidad and Tobago (NGC). NGC is a frontrunner in using satellite technology to improve operational efficiency and environmental performance.
Over half of global methane (CH4) emissions result from human activities with emissions from waste, one of the biggest contributors. According to the Global Methane Assessment 2021 report, agriculture (livestock farming and rice cultivation) is the highest contributor of anthropogenic emissions at 40%, followed by fossil fuels at 35% and landfill methane at 20% [ref].
