Welcome To Imaging Atoms

Imaging Atoms, Inc. provides technical support and consultation to assist with ground and aerial natural gas leak surveys using military-grade gas imaging and detection for the effective and economical maintenance of natural gas systems. Natural gas leaks are costly, and can pose immediate hazards to people and property. Our technical assistance with aerial and ground leak surveys is ideal for production, gathering, processing, transmission and distribution natural gas systems. Our supported leak surveys allow for an immediate determination of how much gas is being lost from pinpointed origins, near or from a distance.

LEAK TARGETS include: Wellheads, Gathering Lines, Separation Tanks, Processing Plants, Transmission Lines, Compressor Seals, Connectors, Vents, Valves, Distribution Systems, Mains, Service Lines and LNG Operations. Our services are also ideal for CCGT maintenance to eliminate costly natural gas, SF6 and CO2 leaks.

We provide this support in a cooperative and confidential manner, to the complete satisfaction of our clients. Given that many of our supported programs are completed along with regulatory oversight, one of our core operating philosophies is “If it is not documented, it did not happen”. Every program is well documented in a definitive process using controlled hardcopy and electronic media. Unique survey location ID, GPS coordinates, redundant survey point description, date and time of acquisition, serial numbers of equipment, initials of operators, and lot numbers of calibrations standards are some elements of our final deliverables. Documentation procedures are modeled after applicable ISO/IEC requirements.
 
Our ground and aerial analytical capabilities use the most advanced technologies commercially available to industry for visualizing, detecting, and documenting natural gas and chemical emissions. Given the immediate determinations by these techniques, many more survey points are obtainable in a single day including those over expansive areas. Real-time measurements and recorded images surgically pinpoint the exact origin of leaks, and are then used for effective repairs, resulting in safe and profitable systems.
