Published purpose

C-CORE and GHGSat are developing a means to monitor offshore platform Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. The Offshore Emissions Monitoring (OEM) innovation builds on several sensors and the success of recently launched GHGSat high-resolution satellites (Iris and Hugo) in detecting the smallest GHG emissions ever measured by satellite. This project will advance OEM from concept validation with offshore platforms to an operational application solution ready for implementation. The application domain is offshore operators, government environment departments, and regulatory bodies. The drivers for implementation are similar to the onshore market, including revenue potential from captured emissions, activist investor pressure, regulation, and safety.
