In November Diversified Energy announced it is expanding methane emissions detection at the company’s operations in the Appalachian Basin by deploying an extra 500 handheld detection devices (in addition to 100 already in use) at its worksites (see Diversified Uses Handheld Devices to Detect, Eliminate Methane Leaks).
