Onboard Dynamics was founded in 2013, building on technology that originated at Oregon State University. Later, we secured funding from the DOE’s Advanced Research Projects Agency for Energy (ARPA-E) to advance our technology to address the critical lack of infrastructure in the natural gas refueling market.

Since launching our GoVAC^® Pipeline Evacuation System line in 2021, we have evacuated over 16.95M scf of natural gas with over 8,605 MT CO₂e  net methane emissions reduced.

Our products are based on unique, patented natural gas compression technology.

Our mobile, scalable, affordable technology platform enables our customers to achieve economic value and environmental benefits by simplifying the compression and movement of natural gas. Whether they are deployed at a remote pipeline job site, in the field, or at a fleet yard, our product solutions can accept any low-pressure natural gas or a renewable natural gas source and then compress or move this natural gas for responsible use. And there is no need for any external power source to operate.
