The Challenge

01

VAM monitoring is incomplete

Ventilation air methane (VAM) systems capture only part of the picture. Surface emissions from shafts, seams, and abandoned workings often go unmonitored.

02

Legacy liabilities persist

Abandoned mines continue to emit methane for decades. Tracking these emissions across multiple sites is challenging and expensive.

03

Safety and compliance overlap

Methane buildup is both a safety hazard and an emissions concern. Continuous monitoring helps address both.

How EMSat Monitor Helps

Surface emission detection
01

Surface emission detection

Satellite-based monitoring detects methane emissions from surface sources that ground-based systems miss.

Abandoned mine tracking
02

Abandoned mine tracking

Monitor legacy sites without deploying personnel or equipment. Get alerts when emissions change.

Integration with existing systems
03

Integration with existing systems

Combine satellite data with other data—like, for example, VAM monitoring—to build a complete picture of mine methane emissions.
