Apache Corporation and LongPath Technologies Expand Methane Monitoring Partnership in the Permian Basin
08 March 2022 - 8:15AM
Apache Corporation, a subsidiary of APA Corporation (Nasdaq: APA),
and LongPath Technologies, Inc. are announcing an expansion of
their partnership for continuous methane emissions monitoring in
the Permian Basin of southeast New Mexico and west Texas.
Methane emissions from oil and gas operations are a focal point
for global greenhouse gas mitigation initiatives. LongPath is a
leader in providing 24/7 real-time monitoring for methane leaks.
Apache adopted the LongPath system in Fall of 2021 with the
commissioning of several dozen sites, leading to reductions in
emissions.
“At Apache, we are committed to reducing emissions and were
looking for a technology that provided real-time monitoring and
volume quantifications,” said Jessica Jackson, Vice President,
Environment, Health and Safety. “LongPath’s technology provides our
teams with the data needed to achieve meaningful emissions
reductions while meeting global energy needs in more innovative and
sustainable ways.”
LongPath Technologies’ networked monitoring solution provides
wide-area coverage of many individual facilities with a single
laser system. The laser system is placed in a central location, and
eye-safe light is sent out over multi-mile pathways through the
air. Small mirrors on monitored sites allow for quantified emission
volumes for each site to be reported in real-time.
With the planned expansion, LongPath will provide real-time
monitoring for approximately 60 Apache facilities across multiple
areas of the Permian.
“We are thrilled to be able to continue what has been a
rewarding partnership on both sides,” said LongPath CEO Ian
Dickinson. “In Apache, we have partner who has focused on how to
make continuous monitoring actionable and efficient. The Apache
team’s emissions mitigation workflow represents a viable long-term
solution for ingesting real-time emissions data and getting root
cause analysis and solutions down to a science. We are looking
forward to entering into this next phase with Apache.”
