USE OF, SATISFACTION WITH, AND REQUIREMENTS FOR IN SITU HYDROCARBON SENSORS

Abstract

The fundamental goal of this survey was to assess user needs and applications and to provide the focus for an Alliance for Coastal Technologies (ACT, www.act-us.info) Technology Verification of hydrocarbon sensors. The Customer Needs and Use Assessment strives to better understand how hydrocarbon sensors are used, and not to promote a specific approach to recording/reporting hydrocarbon values. We hope this information can also assist manufacturers in refining hydrocarbon sensor technologies to better address user priorities.
