David Furry
David Furry is an inventor and the founder and president of the former Leak Surveys which he formed to provide cost-effective, reliable gas-leak detection service providing a highly-effective way to detect and see otherwise invisible toxic gas emissions. ChampionX acquired the assets of Leak Surveys in 2022.
David, who had literally walked pipelines searching for leaks, envisioned a device that would be fast, effective, and accurate. After nearly a decade of comprehensive research, he made a breakthrough utilizing infrared cameras with cold filters and, in 2003, created a prototype. His creation was strapped to a helicopter and enabled a dramatic reduction of air pollution from Texas gas lines. He solved a problem that had perplexed industry experts for years.
David’s work has been acknowledged as a breakthrough in leak detection by numerous industry leaders, as well as by the EPA.
