At Kathairos, we specialize in delivering scalable, power-free solutions that help oil and gas producers eliminate methane emissions efficiently and cost-effectively.

Our ability to rapidly scale is made possible through our strong partnership with Chart Industries, allowing us to maintain a robust inventory and meet customer demand in under six weeks—a significant advantage over competitors with six-month lead times. By leveraging our bulk ordering strategy and streamlined deployment process, we ensure producers can swiftly comply with evolving regulatory requirements while achieving meaningful emissions reductions.

Our collaboration with Chart Industries enables us to manufacture at scale as we work closely with producers to align tank deliveries with regulatory deadlines and corporate sustainability goals. This operational efficiency and strategic partnership have made us a trusted ally for producers looking to transition to zero-emission pneumatic solutions—quickly and at scale.

Scaling Emissions Reduction in the DJ Basin: A Rapid, Reliable Solution

In the fast-evolving regulatory landscape of oil and gas operations, producers are looking for scalable, cost-effective solutions to reduce methane emissions. A large oil and gas producer in the Denver-Jules (DJ) Basin recently demonstrated how strategic partnerships and forward-thinking planning can drive rapid emissions reductions—converting over 5,500 devices and deploying 250 tanks in just seven months.  

This project is a testament to the power of collaboration and efficiency. With an impending regulatory shift, the producer took decisive action to implement a zero-emission pneumatic solution, avoiding compliance fees while making significant strides in emissions reduction. As of January 2025, their efforts are mitigating approximately 3,400 metric tons of CO2e per month, putting them on track to eliminate 40,000 metric tons of CO2e annually—and that number continues to grow as additional tanks are installed.

From Trial to Full-Scale Implementation

The journey began with a three-tank pilot program in Fall 2023, running through early Q1 2024. After a successful trial period, the producer moved quickly, ordering over 250 tanks in 2024. This rapid scale-up showcased the effectiveness of the technology and the ability of our operations team to keep pace with demand.

With 50 additional tanks currently being installed and more tanks in the pipeline, this partnership highlights what’s possible when innovative technology meets operational excellence. By eliminating methane emissions at scale, producers are not only staying ahead of regulatory requirements but also making a meaningful impact on sustainability.

Meeting Demand at Scale

One of the key factors in the success of this large-scale deployment was rapid turnaround and reliable supply.  

“Having such a strong partnership with Chart allows us to work together to meet customer demand and ensure tanks are being delivered in a timely manner, exceeding customer expectations,” says Kasey Gardner, Asset Manager at Kathairos. “Because of our ability to bulk order, we maintain a large inventory and can scale quickly to meet customer needs.”

This level of responsiveness has been crucial for producers navigating regulatory timelines. For this particular project in the DJ, we worked closely with the customer to develop a deployment schedule, ensuring that tank deliveries aligned with their regulatory deadlines and internal corporate goals.

As the industry continues to evolve, the demand for reliable, scalable, and power-free emissions reduction solutions will only grow. At Kathairos, we’re committed to delivering results—on time, at scale, and with measurable impact.
