Natural Gas & LNG
Natural Gas & LNG Analyzer and CEMS Support
Natural gas and LNG facilities depend on reliable measurement across processing, compression, combustion, and storage operations. Monitoring requirements vary by equipment, permit, and location.
TriCore IMS designs, integrates, and supports process analyzers, sample systems, CEMS and DAHS solutions, and emissions testing programs for gas and LNG operations. We help teams connect measurement data with operating and compliance needs.
When Does a Natural Gas Facility Need a CEMS?
Natural gas facilities may need continuous monitoring or periodic emissions testing for turbines, engines, heaters, flares, and other regulated sources. The applicable requirements depend on the equipment, operating conditions, and facility permit.
A properly designed CEMS can provide continuous measurements, support required records and reporting, and help operators identify data quality issues. TriCore IMS works with facility teams to evaluate monitoring requirements and design systems suited to the source and reporting workflow.
Which Gases and Emissions Can Be Monitored?
Depending on the source and permit, monitoring may include:
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
Carbon monoxide (CO)
Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Sulfur dioxide (SO2)
The right measurement approach depends on the source, permit, gas composition, and reporting requirements. CEMS, process analyzers, and sample conditioning systems can be configured to provide the required data. TriCore IMS can help evaluate the application and select suitable equipment.
How Does a CEMS Work?
A CEMS draws a representative gas sample from a stack or process through a probe and sample line. A sample conditioning system prepares the gas for measurement, and analyzers measure the required compounds continuously.
A data acquisition and handling system records the readings and supports calculations, quality checks, and reporting. The sampling approach, analyzers, and alerts must be configured for the source and its permit requirements.
Emissions Testing Services
Natural gas and LNG operations depend on accurate emissions data from compressors, turbines, heaters, and combustion sources. TriCore helps operators coordinate testing and reporting so field results support permit compliance, greenhouse gas tracking, and reliable CEMS performance.
