Teledyne FLIR Expands ADGiLE Gas Monitoring System
The automated system now detects ammonia and ethylene in addition to oil and gas emissions.
Updated on Nov. 2, 2026 in Oil and Gas
Teledyne FLIR, part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, introduced new capabilities for its ADGiLE automated gas emissions monitoring system. The system now extends gas detection to ammonia and ethylene beyond oil and gas applications.
Why it matters
Automated monitoring allows operators to detect leaks and emissions continuously across multiple areas from a single system. Extending detection beyond oil and gas broadens the range of industrial sites that can use the technology.
ADGiLE pairs uncooled cameras for methane detection with cooled cameras for broad hydrocarbon and VOC detection, and its pan-tilt configurations use an ATEX-rated housing for hazardous areas. The extraction does not include sensitivity levels, coverage ranges, or independent test results for the system.
The players
Teledyne FLIR
A thermal imaging and infrared camera business within Teledyne Technologies Incorporated that develops industrial gas detection and monitoring products.
Teledyne Technologies Incorporated
A U.S.-based industrial technology conglomerate whose subsidiaries supply instrumentation, imaging, and monitoring systems to industrial markets.
The details
ADGiLE combines optical gas imaging, gas detection analytics, and an enhanced user interface, analyzing gas detection across successive image sequences while accounting for wind speed, temperature differential, and rain. Users can access live views, incident playback, historical data, and graphical event reports via web or mobile devices, with text alerts linked directly to incidents.
Industry Position
Optical gas imaging cameras have become a standard tool for detecting methane and hydrocarbon leaks at industrial sites. ADGiLE builds on that approach by automating continuous monitoring and expanding detection to ammonia and ethylene.
For operators of oil, gas, and chemical facilities, automated gas monitoring can reduce the need for manual inspection rounds and speed up identification of emissions. Plant managers and safety teams may find that continuous, camera-based detection simplifies compliance tracking across multiple sites.
The takeaway
Automated, camera-based gas detection is moving from single-site inspection toward continuous monitoring across more gases and industries. Facility operators tracking emissions should look for systems that document incidents and environmental conditions for review.
