Ghgsat Incorporated

GHGSat Incorporated, doing business as Services Satellitaires Ghgsat, is a Montreal-based commercial satellite operator specializing in greenhouse gas emissions monitoring and environmental data products. The company operates a constellation of imaging spectrometer satellites capable of detecting and measuring methane and other greenhouse gas emissions from industrial facilities, energy infrastructure, and other sources. GHGSat provides satellite-based Earth observation data and related services to federal agencies, positioning itself as a key provider of commercial small satellite capabilities to support government research, environmental monitoring, and climate science initiatives.

GHGSat has secured multiple prime federal contract awards across several civilian agencies, demonstrating broad demand for its specialized environmental monitoring services. The company received purchase orders from the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Research and Development totaling $84,800 for satellite-based methane emissions measurements and geolocated methane emissions data, with completion dates extending through May 2025. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration awarded GHGSat a purchase order valued at $297,864 for greenhouse gas emissions imagery services, with performance continuing through June 11, 2026. Most significantly, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has awarded GHGSat multiple delivery orders under the Commercial SmallSat Data Acquisition Program, including a $2,999,850 delivery order for greenhouse gas emissions data products with completion scheduled for February 10, 2027, a $193,185 delivery order for disaster response satellite data due November 24, 2026, and a $500 delivery order for metadata archival completed in November 2023. Additionally, GHGSat received a $2,963,424 Blanket Purchase Agreement call from NASA for satellite electro-optical gas detection imagery data products. None of these awards utilized set-aside designations, indicating the company competes on its unique technical capabilities. GHGSat performs work from facilities in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

GHGSat holds two significant Indefinite Delivery Vehicles with NASA's Earth Sciences Division under the Commercial SmallSat Data Acquisition Program. The primary IDV is a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity contract with a $476 million ceiling value extending through November 15, 2028, which enables NASA to flexibly acquire Earth observation data and related services from commercial small satellite sources. This contract supports NASA's Science Mission Directorate and Earth Sciences Division initiatives in acquiring commercial small satellite data that complements the agency's own Earth observation capabilities. The second IDV is a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement originally valued at $2,963,424 established in September 2022 for the provision of high-resolution gas detection and commercial Earth observation data; this agreement was subsequently cancelled as no longer required. Both IDVs operate without set-aside designations and position GHGSat as a prime contractor capable of delivering specialized satellite-based environmental monitoring data directly to federal science agencies.
