Scalable Methane Monitoring for a Southeast Asian Oil & Gas Major
Oil & Gas Southeast Asia SWIRSAT + ESG 2024

Methane visibility, aligned with OGMP 4 & 5

Continuous, satellite-grounded methane monitoring for a Southeast Asian oil & gas major pursuing Paris-aligned reductions of 50% by 2025 and a further 50% by 2030 — without the cost and gaps of pure field-inspection programmes.

Challenge & Solution

Replacing costly manual inspections with AI-powered, continuous satellite methane monitoring

Compliance commitments outpace what manual inspection can deliver

A major Southeast Asian oil & gas operator committed to a 50% reduction in methane emissions by 2025 and a further 50% by 2030 — in line with the Paris Climate Accord and its own Net Zero Carbon Emission 2050 initiative. Meeting those targets, and proving compliance with OGMP Levels 4 and 5, required continuous, high-precision monitoring at a scale field crews could not realistically reach.

01
Manual field inspections are costly and gap-prone

Periodic on-site surveys miss events between visits and leave large parts of the asset base unmonitored on any given day.

02
OGMP 4 & 5 demand quantified, source-level evidence

Self-reported activity data and engineering estimates do not satisfy the highest OGMP reporting levels; emissions must be measured and reconciled.

03
Decarbonisation targets are time-sensitive

With a hard milestone in 2025 and another in 2030, slow detection-to-mitigation cycles directly threaten the trajectory toward Net Zero 2050.

AI-powered methane monitoring from orbit — continuous, quantified, audit-ready

LC60 AI delivered an AI-powered methane monitoring stack built on high-resolution satellite Earth Observation and proprietary analytics. The system runs continuously across upstream and downstream assets — eliminating the dependence on costly manual inspection and producing the source-level evidence that OGMP 4 & 5 require.

01
Near real-time detection across upstream & downstream

High-resolution EO + AI flags plumes across the full asset base, not just sites recently visited by a field crew.

02
Source-level quantification, not just detection

Methane volumes are tracked back to specific sources, producing the audit-ready evidence chain required for OGMP Level 4 & 5 reporting.

03
Automated alerts that drive faster mitigation

Operations, HSE, and sustainability teams receive event-level alerts — closing the gap between detection and intervention.

04
Integrates with existing environmental frameworks

Outputs are designed for direct ingestion into the operator’s existing MRV and environmental-compliance systems — no parallel reporting workflow.

On-track decarbonisation with audit-ready evidence

OGMP 4 & 5
Compliance achieved

Source-level reconciliation evidence aligned with the highest OGMP Oil & Gas Methane Partnership reporting levels.

50% / 50%
Reduction targets on track

Trajectory secured for 50% methane reduction by 2025 and a further 50% by 2030 — underpinning the operator’s Net Zero 2050 initiative.
