Picarro launches handheld solution for natural gas leak investigation and closed-loop leak management

Picarro, a global leader in natural gas leak and emissions management technologies, has launched a 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.

“We are thrilled to launch our Picarro Handheld, which reflects our dedication to innovation and our customers’ needs. This product not only simplifies the leak detection process but also sets a new standard in productivity and safety for natural gas operators,” said Julien Klein, Senior Director of Product Marketing at Picarro. “By combining cutting-edge technology, user-friendly design, and powerful cloud analytics, we empower our customers to enhance their operations and ensure the safety of the communities they serve.”

The Picarro Handheld has proven its reliability and effectiveness with several major utilities worldwide. Having undergone rigorous testing for durability against shock, vibration, extreme temperatures, humidity, and dust, it is built for real-world challenges. Customers benefit from an exceptional experience and productivity, backed by a team dedicated to their success.
