Founded at St. F.X., Arolytics takes advantage of oil patch regulations

The founders of a startup that aims to help oil and gas companies track their greenhouse gas emissions believe their business is poised for rapid growth. Arolytics was developed at St. Francis Xavier University, where co-founders Liz O’Connell, Emmy Atherton and Dave Risk were developing technology to measure methane releases. Now, they are preparing to help for-profit businesses document those same emissions ahead of looming regulatory changes.
