The objectives of this feasibility project are :To modify a novel open path gas sensing platform previously developed for a security application and capable of continuous operation in harsh environment to monitor methane from unconventional gas extraction sites.To take data from these sensors and use a suite of adapted data inversion algorithms to pin-point the locations of emissions.To deployed and assess these systems on a number of satellite well-heads of unconventional gas sites to monitor methane gas.Overall the project aims to address the high-level challenge of developing, safe, reliable and cost-effective technologies for the emerging shale gas market.Enabled by this project it is anticipated that this suite of technologies (sensor network + algorithms) will lead to its adoption as best available technique by regulators and unconventional gas site operators . Furthermore, if proven valuable in that speciific sector it may be an attractive proposition in the more traditional oil and gas industry.

该可行性项目的目标是：改进先前为安全应用开发的新型开放路径气体传感平台，该平台能够在恶劣环境下连续运行，以监测非常规天然气开采现场的甲烷。从这些传感器获取数据，并使用一套适应的数据反演算法来精确定位排放的位置。为了监测甲烷气体，在一些非常规天然气站点的卫星井口上部署和评估了这些系统。总体而言，该项目旨在解决为新兴页岩气市场开发安全、可靠和具有成本效益的技术的高层次挑战。通过该项目，预计这套技术（传感器网络+算法）将被监管机构和非常规天然气现场运营商采用，成为最佳可用技术。此外，如果在特定领域被证明是有价值的，那么在更传统的石油和天然气行业中，它可能是一个有吸引力的提议。
