Picarro Inc., a global leader in methane emission management and reduction solutions, and GTI Energy, a technology development and training organization, today announced the extension of their partnership on GTI Energy’s Veritas Initiative. The companies will continue to collaborate to further develop, validate, and implement Veritas’ technical protocols for reducing methane emissions in the natural gas industry
Veritas provides a reliable, standardized framework for accurately measuring, verifying, and comparing methane emissions, ensuring consistency and transparency that instills confidence in stakeholders, investors, and global markets. By offering open-source technical protocols tailored to each segment of the natural gas industry, Veritas helps companies adopt a measurement-informed approach to measuring and reporting methane emissions with credibility and comparability. As a leader in Advanced Mobile Leak Detection (AMLD), Picarro brought its unique experience and worked with its customers to review and test the protocols on actual distribution networks data. Picarro was also a key contributor to the collaboration between Veritas and the Oil & Gas Methane Partnership 2.0 (OGMP 2.0).
“Picarro has been an active supporter of Veritas since its inception in 2022, and we are proud to be recognized as a Foundational Sponsor,” said François-Xavier Rongère, Picarro’s Vice President for Natural Gas Industry. “We understand the critical importance of a science-driven framework to help gas operators establish trusted and actionable reporting of their network methane emissions. As a leader in Network Intelligence and emissions management, we are pleased to share our expertise and contribute to this emerging practice.”
“We are grateful for Picarro’s continuous support of Veritas. As a key participant and a global thought leader in measurement-informed emission inventory, Picarro has made invaluable contributions to the design of the Veritas protocols for gas distribution systems,” said Amanda Harmon, GTI Energy’s Executive Director of Veritas. “We look forward to continuing our collaboration to scale up the reference to Veritas in the new regulatory and voluntary efforts.”
