Technology

Lesair strives to be an innovative member of the oil and gas industry employing state of the art technologies to more effectively assist in assessment and remediation practices.

High Flow Sampler

Lesair is one of the few environmental consulting firms to own a Bacharach High Flow Sampler.  This technology is a low impact way to accurately quantify equipment leak rates.  Actual data is collected, allowing for prioritization of maintenance repairs.  The maintenance team is able to first focus on the worst leaks, putting more gas back into the pipeline and allowing the team to make the most out of the maintenance budget.

Optical Gas Imaging (FLIR Thermal Imaging)

Lesair is certified to provide FLIR thermal imaging services.  Using infrared cameras, we can quickly scan large areas that are difficult to reach with traditional contact tools.  Human workers are less exposed to invisible and dangerous chemicals as imaging can be conducted from afar.  Kilometers of pipeline can be assessed within minutes, finding leaks of methane and other volatile organic compounds.  Results are delivered in real-time, displayed on screen as a “black smoke,” making leaks visible and easy to find and repair.

Software

Lesair Environmental began using ProMAX software (previously ProSIM) in 2001, long before it was well-known as an air quality assessment tool.  The software is now tailored towards air quality and, both Colorado and Wyoming, have written its use into their regulations.

ProMAX software

Lesair Environmental began using ProMAX software (previously ProSIM) in 2001, long before it was accepted as an air quality assessment tool.  The software is now tailored for the air quality industry, and the States of Colorado and Wyoming have integrated the use of ProMax into their air quality regulatory requirements.

Dispersion Modeling

Lesair Environmental, Inc. utilizes advanced software technology including AERMOD, the EPA’s preferred computer model for air dispersion modeling. Using AERMOD, Lesair can estimate the ambient impacts of air pollutants emitted from industrial sources, such as NOx & Formaldehyde.
