Bridger Photonics, Inc. proposes developing a drone-based Gas Mapping LiDAR™ sensor to mitigate the loss of valuable product across the Oil & Gas supply chain.The sensor will uncover leaks and physical changes to infrastructure and pipeline right-of-ways using high-resolution 3D topographical imagery with methane gas concentration overlays.The technology will enable reliable detection, precise localization, and accurate quantification of leaks.Bridger’s target market will be the Oil & Gas production sector, where most lost product occurs.For the proposed Phase I effort, Bridger will prove the feasibility of meeting the key performance characteristics demanded by the industry while overcoming the critical cost barrier to reach a price point below $500/yr per wellpad.This provides an attractive value proposition to key industry stakeholders that lose an estimated $2,400/yr per wellpad due to lost product and regulatory fin
