Aligned with the Global Methane Pledge to collectively reduce global methane emissions by at least 30% by 2030, Bohr Limited deploy a technology for Gas Leak Detectors enabling the mitigation or reduction of emissions of methane/ethane, discriminating between natural gas & biogas with great accuracy and real time.

Traditional surveys, which are conducted walking, are time-consuming and labour-intensive. In contrast, our advanced vehicle-mounted leak detection technology – AMLD – allows utility operators to identify potential gas leaks in real time across a much larger area, providing a quicker method and preventing the avoidable release of methane/ethane into the atmosphere through the distribution network.

The system employs Tunable Diode Laser Absorption Spectroscopy (TDLAS) technology, and requires minimal modifications to a survey vehicle, allowing easy removal thanks to its meticulously designed components. The latest wireless technology integrates the system, combining detector data GPS and anemometer information, ensuring accurate location information with data processing in real-time to produce actionable reports.

We are now in a trial in collaboration with Cadent Gas Limited investigating methane/ethane leaks in the gas distribution network in a project in London for the Digital Platform for Leakage Analytics (DPLA), which provide important learnings for us and the gas industry to cut emissions and make the network even safer.

We’re committed to leveraging technology to enhance the safety and efficiency of our network.
