Anna Hodshire

Atmospheric Chemist Colorado State University (METEC)

Dr. Anna Hodshire is a Research Scientist at Colorado State University’s Energy Institute with the Methane Emissions Technologies Evaluation Center (METEC). Current projects include coordinating field campaigns for top down/bottom down surveys and basin-wide surveys of oil and gas emissions of methane. Prior to joining METEC, Dr. Hodshire worked at small companies focused on measuring properties of atmospheric aerosols for health and climate applications. She holds a Ph.D. and M.S. in Atmospheric Science from Colorado State University.

Main Conference Day 1: Wednesday, June 12

10:20 AM ASSESSING METRICS FOR METHANE EMISSION RATE DETECTION SENSITIVITY

Join our panellists to conduct a thorough analysis of existing technologies and explore methods that empower both operators and regulators to audit and instil trust in detection sensitivity metrics, paving the way for more accurate and reliable methane emission assessments. Attend to:


  • Understand what metrics are needed to enable trust in leak detection sensitivity and quantification
  • Discuss the Probability of detection (POD) for various technologies
  • Understand how detection sensitivity performance based on controlled release testing can diverge from field performance
  • Understand why the Minimum Detection Limit (MDL) falls significantly short as a metric for assessing sensitivity in emission rate detection
  • Explore methods which allow both operators and regulators to audit and trust detection sensitivity
  • Investigate the significance of determining both upper and lower limits for methane emissions and defining what qualifies as high or low levels of emissions
