Proven in the Field: Qube Technologies and NGIF ETC Advance Continuous Emissions Monitoring

Qube Technologies has worked with the NGIF Emissions Testing Centre to test and validate its continuous emissions monitoring hardware, data models, and platform at Tourmaline's West Wolf Lake Gas Plant in Alberta. NGIF has also supported Qube financially across multiple rounds. The latest work at the ETC focuses on Qube Lite and Qube Camera, which operate as standalone tools or integrate with Qube Fenceline to deliver equipment-level source detection, precise localization, and visual confirmation in a single platform.

Why Not Both? The Best Emissions Monitoring Systems Don’t Choose Between Fenceline and Source-Level Detection

Fenceline and source-level emissions sensors are often treated as competing approaches, but the strongest monitoring programs use both. Fenceline Qubes excel at site-level detection and quantification, while source-mounted sensors like Qube Lite pinpoint exactly which piece of equipment is leaking. Deployed together, the two technologies compensate for each other's blind spots, delivering cost-effective, comprehensive detection, localization, and quantification.

Verifying Methane Reductions with Continuous Monitoring: Upgraded Pneumatic Controllers Drive 80% Reduction

Colorado’s Reg 7 requires operators to eliminate methane-emitting pneumatic controllers and prove that new systems cut emissions. This operator replaced gas-driven devices with compressed air pneumatics, then used Qube’s continuous monitoring to establish a pre-upgrade baseline and quantify performance after startup. The fenceline sensors showed an immediate, sustained methane reduction of more than 80 percent, even at sites that were already operating below baseline. For engineering and technical leaders, this project shows how continuous monitoring can validate CAPEX decisions, de-risk compliance, and create a defensible data record for regulators and internal stakeholders.
