Claim 18:
19. A system, comprising:
a plurality of discrete sensors located at different locations within an oil and gas worksite, wherein each of the plurality of discrete sensors are configured to detect different types of sensor data; and
a greenhouse gas emission analysis system configured to:
automatically send a control signal to a mobile platform to request that the mobile platform autonomously maneuver at least one discrete sensor of the plurality of discrete sensors proximate a potential greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite;
receive sensor data from the plurality of discrete sensors to correlate different types of the sensor data from the plurality of discrete sensors using one or more reduced order models (ROMs) that reduce computational complexity of computational fluid dynamics model simulations of previously collected data relating to operation of the oil and gas worksite;
determine an existence of a greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite, a location of the greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite, and a quantity of the greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite based at least in part on the correlation of the different types of sensor data;
identify whether the greenhouse gas emission is a gas leak or a gas vent based at least in part on the correlation of the different types of sensor data; and
in response to identifying that the greenhouse gas emission is a gas leak, automatically send one or more control signals to one or more pieces of equipment of the oil and gas worksite to automatically adjust one or more operational parameters of the one or more pieces of equipment to minimize effects of the gas leak.
