The new methane rule enables operators to use approved advanced monitoring technologies, including continuous monitoring systems, to detect fugitive emissions. Qube’s platform meets and exceeds the technical requirements for using continuous monitoring systems under the rule.

Metal oxide sensors can drift from their calibrated baselines over time. But Qube’s remote auto-calibration process runs continuously and autonomously to identify potential drifts and correct itself to ensure consistent leak detection performance and data integrity.

Emission rates, emission durations, and wind speeds all vary, which can impact a continuous monitoring system’s probability of detection. Qube has developed a solution that optimizes device placements to assure the highest levels of detection and value for customers.

Qube’s SOC 2 Type I audit verifies that we effective controls in place to ensure our customers’ data security, and affirms our commitment to the highest operational standards for data management.

Management by exception helps upstream oil and gas operation managers focus on overall business unit performance. SCADA and Continuous monitoring systems together provide essential data that makes management by exception workflows more effective.

Continuous monitoring systems can cost-effectively meet updated monitoring and reporting requirements under Colorado Regulation 7.

Continuous monitoring systems can help operators meet new reporting requirements and reduce regulatory exposure under the proposed rules in subpart W.

Continuous monitoring systems enable oil and gas operators to continually monitor for methane emissions. But data and alarms alone will not stem an emissions event; dedicated operations and maintenance workflows are necessary to achieve positive outcomes from a CM system.

In this article we discuss why Emissions Rate tells a more complete story about what a methane plume looks like, how it is moving around in space over time, and where the emission is originating.

True false positive alarms are rarely issued by the Qube system. This articles explains what a false positive alarm is in the Qube system, how to make sense of METEC results, and the best practices for responding to potential false positive alarms.

Establishing the right alarm parameters for a facility is essential to driving the appropriate response to leak events. This article discusses the best practices for establishing alarm notifications, how to implement them, and the benefits of each method.

In this article we discuss how alarm notifications work in the Qube system, and how to set up user-defined alarm parameters.

In this post, we will cover the accuracy, reliability, and cost advantages of metal oxide sensors, while also revealing some of the techniques we use to offset the technology’s potential limitations.

Testing Qube’s continuous methane emissions monitoring devices using compressed calibration gasses.

Qube works with industry and academia to conduct blind controlled release test studies conducted by 3rd parties.

Metal Oxide sensors have become a key tool in the battle to detect, quantify and reduce GHG (greenhouse gas) emissions.

Analyzing wind vectors (wind speed and direction) with an anemometer is one way we can improve our calculations. Qube ships an anemometer with every device.

Emissions from offsite sources can result in a false positive detection of emissions leading to problems with emissions quantification, land owner relations, and HSE concerns.
