Gas well and Oil well leaks have a huge impact on releasing large amounts of CH4 into our atmosphere. To aid looking after the planet and complying with legislative laws and acts, it is incredibly important to measure the release of the greenhouse gas emissions accurately.
There are a few challenging factors to be considered when measuring the greenhouse gas emissions caused by the wells leaking.
Alicat’s whisper series has a very low pressure drop. This paired with the portable battery makes the MWB mass flow meter series an ideal solution for each challenge previously mentioned.
Even better yet, these devices don’t just measure mass flow, they also measure the volumetric flow, pressure and temperature, all at once!
As you can imagine depending on where the gas well is, this can change the components of emissions. The MW (non-battery variation) mass flow meter and MWB have been built into skids to observe and document changes over time.
These devices are being used by a large variety of governmental agencies for this purpose.
