Problem
Oil and gas operators face significant methane emissions from pneumatic devices, leading to regulatory penalties, carbon taxes, and lost production value, while traditional mitigation methods can disrupt operations and lack real-time monitoring.
Solution
Kathairos provides a liquid nitrogen injection system that replaces wellhead gas in pneumatic equipment, eliminating methane venting without interrupting production. The technology operates continuously with 99.999% reliability, leveraging over 30 million operating hours to ensure uptime even in remote, extreme environments. Deployments can be scaled rapidly—from single sites to thousands of wells—thanks to modular system design and a proven rapid‑deployment process. Emissions data and system performance are delivered through the Atlas digital platform, offering real‑time, empirical monitoring, compliance reporting, and cost‑saving analytics. This integrated hardware‑software solution enables operators to meet emerging methane regulations, avoid waste emission charges, and capture fuel‑gas savings while maintaining production continuity.
Target Audience
Primary customers are North American upstream oil and gas operators and E&P companies that use pneumatic equipment and need to meet methane emission regulations while preserving production efficiency.
