[{"type":"text","content":"ABU DHABI, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES / ACCESSWIRE / November 15, 2021 / National Energy Services Reunited Corp. (\"NESR\") (NASDAQ:NESR)(NASDAQ:NESRW), a national, industry-leading provider of integrated energy services in the Middle East and North Africa (\"MENA\") region, today announced an investment in Qube Technologies (\"Qube\"), a provider of continuous emissions monitoring technology that enables oil and gas operators to better detect, measure, and reduce methane and other greenhouse gas (\"GHG\") emissions. Founded in 2018, Qube continuously collects gas concentration, atmospheric, and other operational data to locate, quantify, and classify emissions by source and severity. In 2021, Qube received the world's first regulatory approval to replace standard leak detection and repair (\"LDAR\") practices with Qube's continuous monitoring platform, which has been shown to lead to faster repairs that vastly reduce emissions and improve operational performance and safety.\"Being here at ADIPEC in Abu Dhabi alongside industry thought leaders like ADNOC, and following the recently-announced Saudi Green Initiative and ongoing discussions at the COP26 Climate Summit, it is clear that the oil & gas industry is moving quickly to establish leadership on energy transition and GHG emissions reduction,\" said Sherif Foda, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of NESR. \"Today's pivotal investment and collaboration announcement with Qube will sharpen NESR's focus in the realm of emissions detection & monitoring, technologies that will aid key MENA producers in both quantifying the overall Scope 1 & Scope 2 footprint, and also in pinpointing the source of harmful gas leaks.
