  • Company Name: LatConnect 60 Ltd
  • Email: partnerships@latconnect60.com
  • Year of implementation: 2024
  • Country of implementation: Malaysia
  • Technology: AI & Data Analytics, Earth Observation Services, Remote Monitoring, Software Platforms
  • Industry: Oil & gas
Challenge:

A major oil and gas company from Southeast Asia sought to enhance its methane emissions monitoring and mitigation strategies in alignment with global climate commitments. To comply with the Paris Climate Accord and advance its Net Zero Carbon Emission 2050 initiative, the company set ambitious targets – a 50% reduction in methane emissions by 2025 and an additional 50% by 2030.

Achieving these goals required a high-precision, scalable solution that could continuously monitor emissions across its vast operations, provide accurate quantification of methane leaks and ensure compliance with OGMP (Oil and Gas Methane Partnership) levels 4 and 5. Traditional on-site inspections were costly, time-consuming, and lacked real-time insights, making a remote and technology-driven approach essential.

Solution:

LatConnect 60 (LC60 AI) provided an advanced AI-powered methane monitoring solution, leveraging high-resolution satellite Earth Observation (EO) data and proprietary AI-driven analytics to:
– Detect methane emissions in near real-time across upstream and downstream assets.
– Precisely quantify and track emissions sources, enabling accurate reporting.
– Automate alerts and insights, allowing for rapid response and mitigation.
– Integrate seamlessly with existing environmental monitoring frameworks.

By eliminating reliance on manual field inspections, LC60 AI’s solution enabled large-scale, continuous monitoring with superior accuracy and efficiency. The advanced satellite technology allowed the Company to proactively track and mitigate emissions remotely while reducing operational disruptions and ensuring regulatory compliance.

Results:

With LC60 AI’s satellite-based methane monitoring solution, the company:
– Achieved compliance with OGMP levels 4 and 5, reinforcing its leadership in sustainable energy practices.
– Stayed on track to meet its methane reduction targets of 50% by 2025 and an additional 50% by 2030.
– Enhanced operational efficiency through automated emissions tracking and reduced dependence on costly inspections.
– Strengthened its sustainability strategy, aligning with its Net Zero Carbon Emission 2050 initiative.
