Global decarbonization is placing boardrooms under increasing pressure to deliver measurable, and material impacts. In the USA, short-term policies have arguably shifted focus and yet the most immediate and powerful leverages (which support capital renewal strategies and decarbonization efforts) are unchanged.

PREVENTING GAS LEAKS 

Risk intelligence empowers leaders to turn prescriptive maintenance into a strategic lever for emissions reduction, capital efficiency, and operational resilience. This is not theory. , KartaSoft’s patented methodology from the University of Florida enables quantified, actionable insights into how many leaks can be prevented, and translates these into emissions avoided, product saved, and extension of infrastructure life. 

A MEASURABLE PATH TO NET ZERO 

Methane, the primary component of natural gas, is over 80 times more potent than CO₂ in the short term. This makes every avoided leak a high-impact climate intervention. 

KartaSoft’s risk intelligence insights provide accurate forecasts, namely: 

• Where, when and grade of future leaks. 

• Support of prevention strategies through targeted maintenance. 

• Volume of methane that will be saved. 

• The precise emissions impacts that are tied directly to your decarbonization strategy. 

This is quantifiable decarbonization, grounded in operations, not offsetting. 

WHY THIS MATTERS AT THE BOARD LEVEL 

Board members are accountable for aligning operational performance with long-term strategic goals, including emissions targets and capital discipline. Risk intelligence provides the clarity needed to: 

• Link emissions reductions directly to operational decisions. 

• De-risk capital replacement programs through targeted asset renewal. 

• Demonstrate ESG impact with hard numbers, not estimates. 

• Ensure regulatory readiness in jurisdictions tightening methane reporting and accountability. 

Put simply, leak prevention is one of the fastest, most cost-effective ways to reduce emissions today. No new infrastructure is required. 

A STRATEGIC ADVANTAGE

As a board, ask: 

• Are we investing in maintenance strategies that are delivering the highest emissions return? 

• Do we have a clear line-of-sight from operational risk to future-proofing decarbonization outcomes? 

• Can we report, with confidence, how our decarbonization strategy is being implemented at the asset level? 

If the answer is “no” or “not yet”, KartaSoft provides a pilot, delivered in 8 weeks, that will identify leaks and grade them, tested under blind conditions to be truly independent and remove bias.  

Let’s talk about how risk intelligence can turn maintenance into stopping what we can today with measurable climate impacts for the future.
