Optical Gas Imaging

Target Emission Services specializes in the use of infrared thermal imaging to locate hydrocarbon gas emissions. We use an innovative technology known as Flir GasFindIR & GF320 thermal imaging video cameras. These highly specialized infrared cameras deliver real-time thermal images of gas leaks.

Optical emission detection is a relatively new technology that has been developed to provide rapid, accurate and safe identification of fugitive gas emissions. This technology enables the operator to “see” emissions of hydrocarbon gas (methane, propane, butane, aromatics, etc.) that are normally invisible. The thermal imaging facilitates precise identification of the origin of the leak, essential for repair activities.

The benefits of optical leak imaging include:

• Cost-effectively scan hundreds of components simultaneously

• Identify exact source of leaks in real-time

• Direct access with portable, battery-powered camera

• Assessments performed without interruption of operations

• Scan hard-to-reach components from a distance

• Provides video records of emission sources

• Meets requirements of EPA Subpart W monitoring
