The joint partnership leverages SensorUp’s digital backbone to enhance Intero - The Sniffers’ operationally efficient emissions management and improve field-to-office synchronization for operators.
SensorUp and Intero - The Sniffers are excited to announce a strategic partnership focused on methane in the global oil and gas sector. This alliance marks a significant step in enhancing emissions management and providing advanced oil & gas emissions intelligence.
This collaboration integrates SensorUp’s comprehensive emissions management platform with Intero - The Sniffers’ established detection and quantification services across all potential source-level emissions both aboveground and underground. The goal is to provide oil and gas operators with superior data granularity and process control for navigating complex operational and regulatory demands and pursuing net-zero objectives.
At the core of this partnership is the powerful combination of Intero - The Sniffers’ specialized field expertise and Sniffers Full Emission Management Platform (SFEMP) with SensorUp’s IoT software technology, which acts as the digital connective tissue across the enterprise. Leveraging SensorUp’s software solutions, field specialists can now directly connect measurement data coming from Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) campaigns, non-fugitive emission data, and advanced monitoring systems (e.g., CEMS or aerial surveys) into a unified data environment. SensorUp then aggregates this critical field data with information from other sources, such as continuous monitors or existing SCADA systems, providing a more complete picture of asset-level emissions.
This joint offering aims to provide oil and gas operators with significant benefits:
- Unified Emissions Data and Asset Intelligence: Precise on-the-ground measurements from Intero – The Sniffers are integrated into SensorUp’s platform after field collection via SFEMP. This aggregates field data (like LDAR, OGI, non-fugitive emission quantification, perimeter sensors) with information from continuous monitors and SCADA systems, creating a unified environment for superior data granularity at the asset level.
- Streamlined Compliance and Reporting: The partnership supports establishing auditable data pathways for programs like OGMP 2.0 and complying with regulations such as EU Methane Regulation and EPA Quad Ob/c. It provides richer datasets and more structured reporting outcomes, simplifying documentation for regulators and ESG disclosures.
- Enhanced Operational Efficiency: Integrating field activities and automating workflows potentially shortens the time between detection and repair confirmation. This supports better maintenance planning and improves field-to-office synchronization.
- Advanced Analytics and Emissions Reconciliation: The combined data and platform enable enhanced analysis and discovery, including support for reconciliation between bottom-up quantification and top-down assessments. This provides a refined understanding of emission sources.
- Improved Abatement Strategy: Access to validated data and analytics offers a stronger foundation for evaluating the efficacy of emission abatement projects, supporting the pursuit of net-zero objectives.
Katy Densmore, VP of Partner Solutions at SensorUp, emphasized the power of data integration, stating, “Efficient operations are essential for oil and gas companies. SensorUp’s platform acts as the digital connective tissue across the enterprise, turning field data into operational intelligence. This partnership allows the energy sector to achieve significant efficiencies, improving field-to-office synchronization and ensuring operational activities directly support enterprise-wide performance and compliance goals”.
Federico Noris, Head of Innovation & Advisory at Intero - The Sniffers, commented on the value of the partnership, “by integrating the SensorUp platform into our SFEMP platform for on-site data acquisition, our clients can access richer multi-source datasets and structured reporting for LDAR and emission quantification programs. Correlating emission events with operational data in SensorUp improves regulatory adherence and helps manage fugitive emissions in complex networks.”
This partnership is poised to empower oil and gas operators globally in their journey towards operational excellence and emissions reductions, by leveraging the combined strengths of SensorUp’s digital innovation and Intero - The Sniffers’ extensive field expertise.
