1. A method, comprising:
automatically sending, from a greenhouse gas emission analysis system, a control signal to a mobile platform to request that the mobile platform autonomously maneuver at least one sensor of a plurality of sensors located at different locations within an oil and gas worksite proximate a potential greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite;
receiving, via the greenhouse gas emission analysis system, sensor data from the plurality of sensors, wherein each of the plurality of sensors are configured to detect different types of sensor data;
correlating, via the greenhouse gas emission analysis system, the different types of sensor data from the plurality of sensors;
determining, via the greenhouse gas emission analysis system, an existence of a greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite, a location of the greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite, and a quantity of the greenhouse gas emission within the oil and gas worksite based at least in part on the correlation of the different types of sensor data;
identifying, via the greenhouse gas emission analysis system, whether the greenhouse gas emission is a gas leak or a gas vent based at least in part on the correlation of the different types of sensor data; and
in response to identifying that the greenhouse gas emission is a gas leak, automatically sending, via the greenhouse gas emission analysis system, one or more control signals to one or more pieces of equipment of the oil and gas worksite to automatically adjust one or more operational parameters of the one or more pieces of equipment to minimize effects of the gas leak.
