President Biden is seeking plans from pipeline operators aimed at curbing methane emissions in their daily operations.

Shell cargo was deemed carbon-neutral because of offsets purchased by the LNG provider from the oil company’s global, nature-based projects.

The planned LNG export facility will host a large carbon capture and storage project to enable the permanent geologic storage of more than 5 million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year.

Carbon dioxide levels are now higher than at any time in the past 3.6 million years.

The company says its HoverGuard flies on commercial drones and is designed to detect and quantify greenhouse-gas emissions along transmission pipelines.

The court's decision marks the endpoint for the primary legal challenges mounted by Saskatchewan, Ontario, and Alberta, which had argued that the provinces should have the power to individually regulate greenhouse-gas emissions within their borders and to adopt their own strategies for meeting the challenges posed by climate change.

Oilfield services provider Halliburton said that it would set greenhouse-gas emission reduction targets in line with what the latest climate science outlines is necessary to meet the goals of the Paris Accord.

Using a European Space Agency satellite, data analytics firm Kayrros pinpointed global locations of methane emissions and recorded a 32% increase in the overall volume of methane emitted from large leaks compared with the first 8 months of 2019.

Williams Companies announced a near-term goal of a 56% absolute reduction from 2005 levels in greenhouse-gas emissions by 2030, aiming for net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Why is this significant, and where can emissions be mitigated in the midstream natural-gas gathering and boosting segment?

Oil and gas companies must boost investment in low carbon energies or face an increasing backlash that could threaten their long-term profits and social acceptance, the International Energy Agency said.
