Abstract
Methods and apparatus for monitoring and controlling wellsite emissions. A mobile emissions monitoring device is operated in airspace above a wellsite to generate and transmit a monitor signal related to emissions in the airspace. The emissions may be associated with wellsite equipment at the wellsite. A processing system in receipt of the monitor signal operates to cause a change in an operational parameter of the wellsite equipment based on information conveyed by the monitor signal.
