Description

DPLA is Cadent Gas’s data and AI platform on Databricks to detect, localise, and quantify gas leaks across its network so they can fix problems earlier and more precisely.

This presentation will highlight: 

- Why gas shrinkage and leakage matters because of methane emissions, cost and regulation. 
- How Cadent Gas measures leakage with different sensors and segments the network.
- How the Databricks-based DPLA platform uses probabilistic modelling and asset linkage to find and prioritise high-emission assets.

What this delivers: faster leak detection, targeted maintenance, better regulatory reporting, big cost and emissions reduction.
