As global regulations tighten (e.g., EPA’s methane rules, EU Methane Strategy), accurate pressure measurement is critical for leak detection and emission reporting. Calibration standards now directly impact environmental compliance:

• Fugitive Emission Monitoring: Calibrated pressure sensors in LDAR (Leak Detection and Repair) systems reduce false positives.

• Vapor Recovery Units (VRUs): Requires ±0.1% accuracy calibrators to quantify gas capture.

• Certification Demands: ISO 17029 for validation bodies auditing emission data.
  Case Study: How a North Sea operator reduced reporting errors by 40% via NIST-traceable calibration.
