Plowman Craven delivers specialist UAS-led gas emissions surveys using advanced sensing technologies and geospatial workflows. Our approach provides accurate, repeatable measurement data that enables operators to identify, quantify, and manage emissions safely and efficiently across complex environments.
By combining UAS-enabled gas detection with engineering-grade reporting, we provide clear, defensible insight that supports regulatory compliance, environmental management, and operational decision-making across multiple industries.
Our services support operators across industries to:
Gas emissions (including methane, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and other process gases) are often difficult to detect and quantify across large, complex, or hazardous environments. Traditional inspection methods can be intrusive, time-consuming, and limited in coverage, while regulatory scrutiny, environmental reporting requirements, and ESG commitments continue to increase.
Operators must improve emissions visibility, demonstrate compliance, and reduce environmental impact – without disrupting operations or introducing additional safety risk.
Plowman Craven delivers measurement-based emissions surveys using UAS-mounted sensing and geospatial expertise to provide accurate, defensible data. Our approach enables rapid site-wide screening, precise source identification, and repeatable monitoring, all with minimal operational disruption.
By combining safe access to complex environments with structured, engineering-led outputs, we deliver emissions insight that supports compliance, ESG reporting, and confident operational decision-making.
Our emissions surveys deliver structured, actionable data designed for engineering, environmental, and regulatory workflows:
Measurement-based emissions insight for confident operational decisions
Plowman Craven can extensively detect multiple gases, including:
·    Methane – CH4
