Los Angeles-based Zeitview, a provider of aerial inspection and asset intelligence solutions for the energy sector, has acquired Insight M, a methane detection and analytics company serving oil and gas operators. This marks Zeitview’s expansion into the oil and gas market and positions the company to support energy generation, distribution and consumption across all major sources.
In a statement, Zeitview said emissions reduction remains a central focus of its work. The oil and gas industry oversees millions of miles of pipelines and extensive production infrastructure, where traditional manual leak detection and repair methods can be expensive and inefficient. Insight M was developed to address this challenge by using advanced detection technology to identify emissions and prioritize repairs that deliver the greatest environmental impact. Over the past decade, Insight M has helped operators recover more than $900 million in product value and prevent hundreds of billions of cubic feet of methane from being released into the atmosphere.
The combined company will offer an expanded asset intelligence platform for major oil and gas operators, including Occidental Petroleum, BP and Targa.
Under Zeitview, Insight M’s customers are expected to benefit from greater global reach, a broader range of asset intelligence services and more.
