Company overview

Shepherd Safety Systems provides advanced methane and hazardous gas detection solutions to enhance safety and environmental compliance across the oil and gas, industrial, landfill, and renewable energy sectors. The company’s continuous monitoring technology includes high-precision sensors placed directly at leak sources inside facility fence lines for real-time, component-level emissions data. Shepherd’s wearable personal monitors further protect workers in hazardous environments by detecting toxic gases like hydrogen sulfide and sulfur dioxide. The technology seamlessly integrates into clients’ SCADA systems through redundant communication channels, including cellular, satellite, and Wi-Fi, ensuring uninterrupted monitoring and rapid response. With a focus on field-ready deployment, Shepherd combines hardware innovation, AI-powered data analytics, and real-time connectivity to provide operators with actionable insights for safer and more efficient operations.

The company operates on a hardware-as-a-service (HaaS) model, offering its monitoring solutions through rental and subscription-based services rather than outright sales. This model allows operators to access cutting-edge gas detection technology without large upfront capital expenditures. By bundling hardware, software, and services into a single solution, Shepherd enables companies to quickly deploy emissions monitoring, establish baselines, and comply with regulatory standards without the complexity of managing the technology in-house. The pricing structure provides flexibility, ensuring that both large-scale enterprises and smaller operators can integrate advanced safety solutions at a cost-effective rate.
