Strategic sensor placement is critical for reliable, real-time methane detection. Detection depends not just on technology, but on understanding wind behavior, emission sources, and site constraints. 

Qube’s deployment methodology uses historical wind data, source mapping, and MILP-based optimization to design sensor arrays that maximize detection coverage and minimize false negatives. 

The Qube deployment tool turns this methodology into a practical workflow—helping operators visualize trade-offs, configure sensor layouts, and balance detection accuracy with budget. 

Qube’s platform provides continuous emissions monitoring, using wind data, gas concentration, and source identification algorithms to detect methane leaks. However, users must verify alerts, as the algorithm benefits from operational input to ensure accurate source identification. 

Qube Technologies’ continuous monitoring platform can help operators limit super-emitters events, time bound events if they do occur and avoid negative publicity and potential penalties through real-time detection, localization, and quantification of methane leaks.

Continuous monitoring technologies allow operators to implement novel operation and maintenance work practices to efficiently respond to methane emissions
