OGI Training Class
CSU METEC has developed a hands-on Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) training class. The 2-day course is designed to provide direct feedback on camera operator’s performance in order to improve their effectiveness when using the OGI camera to detect leaks. The syllabus combines a small amount of classroom instruction with significant field experiments where attendees may put their new knowledge to practice. The class is designed to benefit new users, as well as experienced OGI surveyors, through a complementary approach with a typical OGI I certification course. An additional day may be included upfront to cover the basic thermography material for new users if desired.
Gain experience using your OGI camera for leak detection at the Methane Emission
Technology Evaluation Center (METEC). Enhance your OGI training with this unique 2 – day hands-on practical course where you will receive direct feedback to improve your methodology and performance. This course is designed to complement your OGI certification course with hands on practice.
Learning Objectives:
- Experience how different backgrounds affect your ability to visually detect an emission source.
- Understand the effective detection limit of OGI cameras and the impact environmental conditions can have on detection limits.
- Evaluate your OGI performance in simulated LDAR scenarios at METEC and improve your effectiveness during the course.
Participants will receive a Certificate of Completion at the end of each training.
Training Dates:
The METEC Site is undergoing significant upgrades impacting the equipment used for OGI trainings. Custom dates may be scheduled for groups of 8 or more participants.
