Picarro leak detection passes PG&E trial

摘要

An independent evaluation of pipeline leak detection technology conducted by the Pipeline Research Council International and Pacific Gas and Electric has proved the validity of Picarro's pipeline leak detection technology. First announced last year (Oil IT Journal February 2012), Picarro's 'Surveyor' field sensing system and 'P-Cubed' cloud-based processing platform detect the presence of minute traces of methane using patented 'cavity ring-down spectroscopy' techniques.
