Agenda Day 3 - Thursday, December 3

11:00 AM Presentation: Targeting Methane Abatement Where It Matters Most: Improving Detection Confidence and Prioritisation Across Pipeline Networks

As midstream operators scale methane reduction programmes across extensive transmission assets, a key challenge is determining where intervention will deliver the greatest impact. This session explores how advances in aerial monitoring are improving detection confidence, reducing operational complexity, and providing the actionable intelligence needed to prioritise abatement activities across pipeline networks. Beyond methane detection alone, integrated aerial inspections are enabling operators to address multiple integrity objectives in a single survey—maximising the value of every flight while supporting both emissions reduction and pipeline integrity programmes.

• Explore how independently validated, high-sensitivity aerial monitoring can help operators identify actionable emissions sources and prioritise mitigation efforts with greater confidence.
• Examine how combining methane detection, liquid hydrocarbon leak detection, right-of-way threat and encroachment monitoring, geohazard assessment, and post-weather inspections into a single aerial survey can reduce cost, minimise operational disruption, and eliminate the need for multiple inspection campaigns.
• Understand how integrated aerial monitoring can support both methane mitigation objectives and pipeline integrity requirements, helping operators satisfy inspection obligations while making better use of existing aircraft fleets without modification.
• Assess how robust, third-party performance validation can strengthen technology deployment decisions, improve confidence in aerial monitoring programmes, and support long-term operational planning.
