The reliability and accuracy of our results combined with our commitment to timely service, have made Pace® a trusted partner in the energy industry for decades.
Monitoring Contaminants in Energy
Energy producers play a vital role in today’s world, but their activities can impact the environment. Pace® environmental testing services help our energy customers assess the impact of their production activities on the natural environment, ensuring sustainable practices and compliance with regulations. Common testing services include:
Pace® Testing Services for Oil & Gas
Pace® supports the oil and gas industry in meeting their operational and sustainability goals. Our comprehensive portfolio of services encompasses advanced analytical testing for hydrocarbons, wastewater analysis, air emissions monitoring, soil testing, and more. Explore our services to learn more about how we help our partners adhere to stringent environmental regulations.
Pace® Testing Services for Mining
Pace® offers a comprehensive range of analytical testing and advisory services designed to help mining companies monitor their environmental impact, maintain regulatory compliance, and optimize mineral exploration processes. By providing precise and reliable data on soil, water, air, bedrock, and other environmental samples, we help mining companies make informed decisions to support more sustainable operations and mitigate risks.
Pace® Meteorological Monitoring Services
Pace® meteorological monitoring services assess variables like wind speed, wind direction, temperature, humidity, precipitation, and atmospheric pressure to understand and predict the potential impact of emissions and comply with complex air quality regulations. Particularly impacted by weather patterns, many renewable energy projects rely heavily on meteorological monitoring. This data not only helps predict the availability of renewable resources, such as sun and wind, but it can also help predict the environmental impact of the climate and terrain on sensitive equipment.
Pace® Radiochemistry Testing Services
Pace® supports the many sectors within the energy industry that need to conduct radioactivity testing to monitor and control potential radioactive contamination to ensure the safety and compliance of their operations. The nuclear power sector, for example, requires extensive radioactivity testing throughout the entire fuel cycle—from mining and fuel fabrication to reactor operations and waste management—to prevent environmental contamination and exposure to hazardous levels of radiation. In the oil and gas industry, we often test for naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM) that can be brought to the surface during drilling and extraction processes. We also help businesses involved in the mining and processing of rare earth and other elements, which may have radioactive byproducts, monitor radioactivity to adhere to safety and environmental standards.
Specialty Services for the Energy Industry
Need high-quality professional services to support your operations and help mitigate risks? Pace® can help. We’re frequently called on to support a range of different activities with testing services and expert guidance.
Pace® Testing Services for the DOE
As the largest American-owned environmental laboratory network, Pace ® is often selected to provide expert testing, analysis, and guidance for many types of environmental projects managed by the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE). For example, with more than four decades of experience, our radiochemistry services help keep the public and workers safe from technologically enhanced naturally occurring radioactive material (TENORM) and Naturally Occurring and Accelerator-Produced Radioactive Materials (NARM).
