First Investment: 2016
Plenty of companies can send out crews to inspect oil and gas facilities for methane emissions on foot. But Insignt M (formerly Kairos Aerospace) flies its spectrometer-equipped planes over oil fields such as the Permian Basin regularly, collecting benchmarked, high-resolution data. The information helps companies identify, quantify, and repair the biggest leaks at wells and gathering lines and prove to investors that they’re managing methane emissions responsibly.
