4) Leak Detection Technology 

The Company is in the process of partnering up with a large European provider of leak detection technology. This technology has the potential of becoming a disrupting technology within the oil and gas sector due to its ability to detect minute amounts of volatile organic compounds  in hydrocarbon leaks. Due to the nature of the technology, it will likely have fewer false alerts unlike a number of competing technologies.
