Continuous methane emissions monitoring
Methane mitigation simplified
Reducing emissions through continuous methane emission monitoring
Our continuous methane emissions monitoring solutions are highly innovative end-to-end IoT solutions that reliably support customers in the oil and gas industry in detecting, localizing and quantifying methane emissions in a cost-efficient manner.
Fenceline monitoring solution: Nubo Sphere
Nubo Sphere changes the state-of-the-art in continuous methane emissions monitoring. It has never been easier to reliably detect, localize and quantify fugitive methane emissions. The future-proof design and our proprietary photoacoustic-based laser spectroscopy sensor technology lower the total cost of ownership while offering highest performance resulting in maximum data quality and uptime. Manage all your sites at a glance: from alerting, reporting to checking system health our software makes it easy for you to get comprehensive insights about your sites' emissions.

Let’s boost your environmental stewardship and operational excellence! Our Nubo Sphere continuous monitoring solution offers oil and gas producers several benefits:
Reduce costs and total emissions
Repair the sources of emissions faster. Nubo Sphere provides real-time emissions data and actionable insights to reduce emissions, improve efficiency, and increase profitability. More insights, less emissions!
Comply with new regulations and voluntary standards
The global regulatory environment is changing. Continuously and accurately detecting, localizing, and quantifying methane emissions allows operators to efficiently achieve compliance, meet ESG goals, reach OGMP 2.0 Level 5 and detect super emitters first—all while staying competitive. Get ahead, stay ahead.
Detect and qualify super emitters
Stay ahead of third-party monitoring. Under the EPA Super Emitter Program, certified third-parties will report emission events >100 kg/h to the EPA for validation and publication. But there’s no need to publicly report internally detected emissions. Detect super emitters first.
Improve operations and personnel safety
Detect emissions and access insights remotely. Nubo Sphere provides quick detection of leaks and real-time emissions data, allowing operators to optimize processes, minimize losses and enhance productivity. Take targeted action from afar.
Attract and retain financial stakeholders
Create financially sound and socially responsible opportunities. Reducing methane emissions is not only environmentally responsible, it also presents a compelling case to investors and insurers based on reduced waste, regulatory compliance, a commitment to operational excellence, and increased profitability and shareholder value. Stand out among the competition.
Demonstrate your ESG commitment and reach net-zero goals
Make your environmental stewardship public. Nubo Sphere provides empirical data from operations, making ESG reporting verifiable, credible and trustworthy. Take the guess work out of meeting emissions reduction objectives.
Understand. Act. Be green.
While CO2 is considered the largest contributor to global warming, methane has a warming potential that is 84x greater than CO2 over a 20-year period. New regulations and ESG standards, investors and the public are addressing this mismatch with a distinct call to action. Many industries such as the energy sector must act, and act quickly. Whether in the USA, Canada or the EU - new regulations to prevent methane leaks will soon come into force. This is where Nubo Sphere comes into play: Alternative technologies such as continuous monitoring solutions help to fulfil these regulations and pave the way for a more sustainable future. As experts in methane emission monitoring we always have our finger on the pulse of the times to support our customers in seamlessly navigating through this new circumstances. Have a look at our latest educational assets:
OGMP 2.0 Level 5 reporting with continuous monitoring
Continuous monitoring captures methane emissions over the entire
reporting period as they actually occur—not as short snapshots.
Sensiron Connected Solutions’ Nubo Sphere solution combines highfrequency
measurements, coverage-aware deployment, and transparent
uncertainty accounting to enable credible OGMP 2.0 Level 5 reporting
at scale.
Kuva receives US EPA approval for periodic screenings
We're proud to announce that our Kuva camera solution has been approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as an Alternative Test Method for periodic screenings under NSPS OOOOa/b regulations. While continuous monitoring enables efficient methane mitigation and drives operational excellence, this EPA approval further expands Kuva’s role as a compliance-ready solution for the oil and gas industry. With this approval, Kuva joins Nubo Sphere, our continuous fenceline monitoring solution, in our portfolio of EPA-approved solutions.

How to use continuous monitoring for periodic screening: why Nubo Sphere is seeking EPA approval as a periodic screening solution
With the latest EPA regulations allowing the use of approved advanced technologies for methane emissions monitoring, Sensirion Connected Solutions is preparing an application for EPA approval of Nubo Sphere as an advanced methane detection technology, both as a continuous monitoring solution and for periodic screenings. Future approval of Nubo Sphere for periodic screenings would make the solution usable in place of, or alongside, traditional AVO, OGI and Method 21 surveys, and subject to the same standards for surveying and reporting.

Clearing the air: how continuous monitoring supports compliance with the latest EU methane regulations
The EU is taking a monumental step in the fight against climate change with new methane rules for the energy sector. In April, the European Parliament reached a provisional agreement to cut methane emissions, a major contributor to global warming. These regulations aim for a 45% reduction by 2030, in line with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals and, crucially, a 0.3°C reduction in global warming by 2045. Our latest blog post unpacks these rules, with a focus on continuous monitoring, and looks at how they'll shape the future of emissions reduction.
