Advanced Methane Gas Detection for Operators

A standard 4-gas monitor can detect methane if it includes a combustible gas or LEL sensor and is calibrated appropriately, often to methane or a correction factor. However, handheld monitors are point-in-time safety tools, not continuous leak detection systems. Well Checked Systems provides site-level methane detection using optical gas imaging, AI validation, and alert workflows designed for remote oil and gas operations.

Yes. Methane can be detected with handheld gas monitors, fixed-point sensors, optical gas imaging cameras, and continuous monitoring platforms. For upstream oil and gas sites, Well Checked Systems uses Zensory.ai™ to combine Long-Wave Infrared Optical Gas Imaging, video analytics, acoustic abnormal-sound detection, and edge AI so operators can identify true fugitive events instead of relying only on periodic inspections.

Well Checked Systems uses a multi-sensor approach that combines visual monitoring, Long-Wave Infrared Optical Gas Imaging, acoustic abnormal-sound detection, and AI-assisted event validation. Zentinal Core™ learns site baselines, filters routine process activity, and alerts operators when true fugitive anomalies are detected. This helps reduce false alarms and gives field teams more actionable information before dispatching personnel.

The platform is designed to support EPA methane rule compliance workflows where alternative-monitoring pathways are recognized by the applicable state SIP or FIP. Data can also be structured for OGMP 2.0 Level 4/5 measurement-based reporting, SASB Oil & Gas E&P disclosures, and TCFD frameworks. Zentinal IQ™ adds defensible quantification after Zentinal Core™ validates an event.

Validated fugitive gas events can be routed through the Well Checked Dashboard, email, text, and SCADA integrations for near-real-time awareness. The service includes response-workflow templates, dispatch runbooks, and rapid-response protocols designed to help operators acknowledge, dispatch, and mitigate within 24 hours on validated methane survey events.

Yes. Well Checked Systems offers SCADA Integration Services so alerts, emissions data, and operational insights can appear within existing control room workflows. This allows operations teams to use familiar systems while adding continuous methane detection, event validation, and reporting data from the Zensory.ai™ platform instead of managing another disconnected point solution.

The platform is built for remote upstream oil and gas assets, including multi-site wellsite portfolios across US onshore producing regions. It is especially useful for operators with high route-based site-visit costs, regulatory methane exposure, ESG reporting needs, and remote locations where continuous visibility can reduce unnecessary travel, improve safety, and support operate-by-exception workflows.

Pricing is available on request because deployments vary by site count, basin, monitoring tier, integration needs, and reporting requirements. Pilot programs are available for operators that want to validate performance before scaling. Many customers evaluate value against reduced route-based visits, improved response time, stronger LDAR records, and quantified methane loss for repair prioritization.
