In July 2022, 29 representatives from participating companies were given the opportunity to attend a 2-day practical course at the Methane Emission Technology Evaluation Center (METEC) at Colorado State University. This optical gas imaging (OGI) camera training provided attendees with the opportunity to improve their methodology and performance through hands-on application, simulated leak detection and repair (LDAR) scenarios and direct feedback from METEC’s methane emissions detections experts.
“The METEC instructor did a fantastic job. The course also combined traditional classroom learning and infield training so that we could apply the course concepts in real time. To top if off, there were LDAR technicians in attendance from other operators across the country. This set the stage for networking and knowledge sharing our past and present LDAR experiences.”
