Environmental Monitoring for Oil & Gas Operations

Bettair can be configured for relevant gases and deployed at strategic locations around processing, storage and infrastructure areas. Continuous measurements of VOC-related parameters, CH4 and other selected gases can be combined with particles, noise and environmental variables. This creates information for investigating episodes, understanding spatial patterns and supporting environmental management.

Environmental Monitoring Challenges in Oil & Gas

Oil and Gas facilities contain multiple potential sources across processing, storage, transfer and supporting infrastructure. VOCs, EVOC, pVOC, CH4, H2S, NO2, SO2 and other gases may vary with operations and wind. Limited spatial coverage can make episodes difficult to investigate, while environmental teams face operational, community and regulatory reporting pressures.

Changing environmental conditions

Environmental conditions can vary by activity, location and meteorology, making isolated measurements difficult to interpret.

Complex operational environments

Oil & Gas sites can contain multiple sources, receptors and operating conditions that require distributed visibility.

Need for continuous evidence

Time-linked data helps investigate episodes, compare locations and support environmental management with traceable evidence.

What to Monitor

Configure the monitoring network around the environmental objectives of the oil & gas project.

1

Particulate Matter

PM1, PM2.5 and PM10 measurements provide continuous visibility into particulate conditions around facilities, operational areas and perimeter locations within Oil & Gas environments.

2

Gases & Emissions

Configurable gas measurements support monitoring objectives involving VOCs, methane and other relevant gases, helping characterize changing conditions around Oil & Gas operations and potential emission sources.

3

Environmental Noise

Continuous acoustic monitoring helps characterize environmental noise associated with operational equipment, industrial activity, logistics and other relevant sources around Oil & Gas facilities.

4

Environmental Conditions

Temperature, humidity, pressure and wind measurements provide important context for interpreting gas and particulate measurements and understanding dispersion conditions around operational areas.
