Highwood Emissions Management Inc. services

We know that the emissions management space can be a challenge to navigate. Changing regulations, emerging technologies, voluntary initiatives and region-specific incentives and programs can make decision making complicated. Highwood can provide support in finding and assessing the right solutions for your organization and maximizing value in a rapidly changing industry.

Fugitive emissions (i.e., leaks) from oil and natural gas infrastructure are an important part of a company’s emissions management strategy. Dozens of new methane detection and quantification technologies are commercially available, including handheld systems, continuous measurement, satellites, aircraft, drones, and vehicles. Highwood works with innovators and energy companies across the supply chain to design and implement world-class leak detection and repair (LDAR) programs. For many of our services, Highwood uses LDAR-Sim, an open-source virtual environment for evaluating the emissions reduction performance, cost-effectiveness, compliance, and safety of different LDAR programs.

The world is starting to reward low-carbon energy companies. Today, a growing number of voluntary initiatives exist for O&G companies to demonstrate their leadership to investors, end users, and the public.

The systematic implementation of one or more LDAQ methods across a collection of assets. The program describes the method, or combination of methods, to be used for each facility, along with survey frequency, repair response, and reporting standards. Ultimately, it is the LDAR program that results in emissions mitigation, not the technologies or methods in isolation.
