What SensorUp does
SensorUp is a Calgary, Alberta-based GeoAI and IoT software company that provides an enterprise platform — branded as the SensorUp Gas Emissions Management Solution (GEMS) — to detect, quantify, reconcile, and report methane and other emissions across oil and gas operations. The platform unifies heterogeneous sensor data streams (satellites such as GHGSat and Momentick, continuous monitors, aerial/LiDAR flyovers, OGI cameras, and SCADA historians including OSIsoft PI and CygNet) with operational systems (SAP, Maximo, ERP, ESG) via three integrated modules: Connected Assets (data integration and asset registry), Connected Operations (workflow automation and SCADA-correlated alert management), and Connected Markets (regulatory and voluntary-market compliance). The technology is built on NATO-awarded geospatial IoT research and adheres to OGC, ISO, and W3C SOSA/SSN standards, including the founder-led OGC EmissionML data model and the rHEALPix Discrete Global Grid System.
Commercially, SensorUp sells primarily through direct enterprise sales to oil and gas operators and NOCs (Occidental, Petronas, Repsol, and five OGCI member companies are reference customers), with quote-based annual SaaS subscriptions. A secondary "Powered By SensorUp" channel program enables technology providers (e.g., GHGSat) and oilfield service firms (Insight M, Manzer, Vertex, Intero, Orbio, MiQ, SAIGEO) to integrate and resell the platform under their own branding. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; the primary conversion mechanism is a "Request a Demo" motion.
Strategically, the company is repositioning from methane data integration toward an agentic AI operating system for physical operations, anchored by the "Operations AI Agents" capability and the GeoLLAMA multi-agent architecture (Coordinator, Inspection, Repair, Reconciler agents, plus an AI Gym digital twin for policy simulation). The company has raised approximately $18M+ in venture funding across rounds led by Vanedge Capital, Evok Innovations, Climate Investment, and most recently Pender Ventures (June 2026 growth round) with strategic participation from Occidental. SensorUp is privately held, venture-backed, headquartered in Calgary, and operates as a remote-first organization with team members across Canada and the United States.

SensorUp product offering
Product offeringCore offering
SensorUp provides an enterprise SaaS platform (Connected Solutions / GEMS) that integrates multi-source methane emissions detection data — including satellites, continuous monitors, OGI cameras, aerial surveys, and SCADA systems — with operational and maintenance systems for oil and gas operators. The platform unifies fragmented field data into auditable workflows that reduce false-positive alerts, accelerate leak response, and automate regulatory reporting under OGMP 2.0, EPA OOOOb, GHGRP, and voluntary market standards.
Product overview
SensorUp offers a unified enterprise platform called the SensorUp Gas Emissions Management Solution (GEMS) with three interconnected modules: Connected Assets (data integration and visualization), Connected Operations (workflow automation and field-to-office sync), and Connected Markets (compliance and market participation). The platform transforms fragmented field data and sensor streams into auditable workflows, connecting detection sources (satellites, continuous monitors, aerial surveys, OGI cameras) with SCADA, maintenance systems, and work order platforms. Key features include the Methane Operations Module for false positive reduction, Emission Ops for real-time emissions management, and the Super-Emitter Program for EPA compliance. The company also offers OrbitalPath, a free public satellite tracking tool, as a sub-brand for operator awareness of satellite monitoring schedules.
