Quarterly surveys are too slow
OOOOb requires semi-annual inspections. A slow valve can emit 90 days of methane before the next walk. Fines accrue from day one of a documented excess.
Aquanta Vision watches your sites around the clock, pins the methane source to the exact fitting, and routes the work order to the closest field crew before a leak becomes a fine.
OOOOb-ready reporting. Houston-based team.
Quarterly walkovers with handheld sniffers leave months of exposure between checks. By the time a field tech finds it, the regulator may have found it first.
OOOOb requires semi-annual inspections. A slow valve can emit 90 days of methane before the next walk. Fines accrue from day one of a documented excess.
A positive reading tells you methane is present. It doesn't tell you whether it's the flange, the valve, or the connector 10 feet behind it. Crews wander.
Compliance auditors want timestamped detection records, chain-of-custody documentation, and corrective action logs. Spreadsheets and field notes rarely satisfy that standard.
Three steps from first photon to work order, fully automated. No analyst in the loop.
Optical gas imaging sensors on fixed mounts scan your facility 24 hours a day. No scheduled walks, no weather cancellations, no human fatigue.
Our atmospheric model resolves the plume back to a specific component: valve body, flange, or connector. Field crews know exactly where to go before they leave the truck.
A geo-routed work order hits the closest qualified technician's mobile app within minutes of detection. The audit log writes itself: detection time, component ID, dispatch time, repair confirmation.
Operations managers get a live view of all monitored facilities. Alert state, last detection event, and work order status roll up into a single ops board. No toggling between systems.
| Site Name | Status | Last Detection | Alert Level |
|---|---|---|---|
| Midland Basin A | ALERT | Today 09:41 | HIGH |
| Permian Pad C-7 | CLEAR | Yesterday 14:22 | LOW |
| Eagle Ford S-3 | SCANNING | 3 days ago | NONE |
| DJ Basin Hub | CLEAR | 5 days ago | LOW |

Valve P-214B, Zone 3, Midland Basin A. Tech J. Reyes routed, ETA 22 min. Detection-to-dispatch: 11 min.
The EPA's OOOOb rule lowered the allowable leak rate and shortened the repair window to 30 days for most components. Quarterly manual surveys mean you're almost always out of compliance before you know it.
Aquanta Vision's continuous monitoring satisfies the monitoring frequency requirement and auto-generates the detection and repair logs regulators request at audit. Your team focuses on repair, not paperwork.
EPA OOOOb Final Rule published. New monitoring frequency and repair deadlines take effect for most operators.
OOOOb compliance required for new wells. Existing facilities face phased-in inspection requirements.
Continuous monitoring qualifies as alternative means of compliance under 40 CFR Part 60, Subpart OOOOb, provided detection and repair records are maintained.
We ran a 90-day pilot alongside our quarterly survey program. Aquanta Vision flagged six events our team missed. Two of those would have been reportable under OOOOb. The ROI math wasn't complicated.
The source pinning is the part I didn't expect to work as well as it does. Field crews used to spend two to three hours tracing a positive reading. Now they drive straight to the component. We've cut repair times by more than half.
Predictable cost against an unpredictable fine risk. Annual contracts available with a discount.
Up to 3 sites
Small operators getting continuous monitoring in place. Includes detection, source pinning, and OOOOb compliance log export.
Up to 15 sites
Multi-site operators. Fleet dispatch integration, consolidated compliance reporting, and API access across all monitored facilities.
Basin operators with 15+ sites. Custom SLA, dedicated support, and SCADA integration with OPC-UA or Modbus TCP.
The Aquanta Vision team combines hands-on field experience with AI and real-time data infrastructure. We know what "good enough" costs when it isn't.
CEO & Co-Founder
Background in sensor-fusion systems for industrial process monitoring. Built and deployed measurement infrastructure across upstream and midstream operations before founding Aquanta Vision.
CTO
Architect of real-time data infrastructure at scale. Previously built time-series ingest pipelines for a major upstream operator's SCADA migration.
Head of Data Science
Specializes in atmospheric dispersion modeling and inverse source attribution. The statistical inference engine behind Aquanta Vision's source-pinning capability is her research applied to field conditions.
A 30-minute demo shows you exactly what we'd monitor at your sites, which components we'd instrument first, and what a compliance report looks like out of the system.
No commitment. Houston-based team.
