Picarro Launches Groundbreaking Handheld Solution for Natural Gas Leak Investigation and Closed-Loop Leak Management

Seamlessly integrating with P-Cubed – Picarro's cloud platform – the handheld enables a fully integrated and traceable leak survey process.

SANTA CLARA, Calif., Sept. 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Picarro, a global leader in Natural Gas Leak and Emissions management technologies, today announced the launch of its state-of-the-art Handheld solution, designed for Natural Gas operators.

The new Picarro Handheld is designed to transform and digitalize on-foot leak investigation operations. It augments Picarro's trusted mobile leak detection technology, allowing operators to close the loop on the leak management process. The launch represents a significant milestone as it reinforces Picarro's commitment to supporting its customers in their journey towards digitalization and modernization of gas leak survey practices.

The Picarro Handheld device offers part-per-billion (ppb) class methane and ethane detection limits, fast response time, and a compact, ergonomic design. This improved performance envelope enables natural gas operators to reduce investigation time, increase leak find rates and eliminate false negatives of traditional part-per-million (ppm) class of handheld gas detectors.

Most importantly, the Picarro Handheld features a powerful and seamless integration into P-Cubed – Picarro's cloud software platform – to support a fully integrated and traceable leak survey process. Operators can now fully digitize their leak investigation processes and leverage powerful cloud analytics to create a unique, quantifiable, and auditable record of field activities.
