  • CA Rule 1178: Adding Technology to Fuel Tank Inspections to Reduce Emissions and Improve Air Quality

    In 2024, South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD), which includes all of Orange County and the urban portions of Los Angeles, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties in the state of California, passed comprehensive updates to California Rule 1178 (CA 1178) to further reduce volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions from organic liquid storage tanks at petroleum facilities within the district. The amended rule establishes more stringent leak detection, repair, and control requirements for storage tanks in gas refineries, bulk storage facilities, and oil production sites.

  • European Union Methane Emissions Reduction 2019/942 Ruling: Maintaining Compliance Requires Quantitative Optical Gas Imaging

    Recently, the European Union (EU) announced its highly anticipated legal requirement concerning methane regulation. Unlike the recently finalized methane and oil and gas emissions leak detection and repair (LDAR) rules from the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) late last year, this rule is significantly more stringent, requiring both detection AND quantification of methane gas. With this additional layer of detail, companies can better understand their emission impact and produce more accurate inventories of methane emissions.

  • Beyond Compliance

    With the release of 2023 NFPA 70B by the National Fire Protection Association, many electricians and maintenance professionals started including thermal imaging in their routine equipment inspections. And while it's always smart to keep up with compliance requirements, the reality is adding FLIR thermal imaging cameras, software, and solutions to your condition monitoring program will increase uptime, help protect worker health and safety, and allow for a more streamlined workforce.
