A study aimed to characterize the detection efficacy of Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) in finding leaks at natural gas facilities. The study revealed that surveyor experience and survey protocols significantly impact leak detection rates, with experienced surveyors detecting substantially more leaks than less experienced ones.
