Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Arvind P Ravikumar"
- Recent research by Arvind P Ravikumar focuses on the detection and quantification of methane emissions in the oil and gas sector, utilizing advanced technologies such as quantitative optical gas imaging (QOGI) and leak detection and repair (LDAR) systems to assess and improve methane mitigation strategies.
- A comprehensive evaluation of LDAR programs revealed that tanks are the largest emission sources, contributing nearly 60% of total emissions, while other studies emphasized the importance of accurate methane inventory reconciliation using continuous monitoring systems.
- Ravikumar's work highlights the necessity for improved emissions accounting frameworks as current methodologies often fail to capture the temporal variability and heavy-tailed distributions of methane emissions, indicating a need for more robust and scalable measurement approaches.
