methane emissions

The revised report provides upstream oil and gas operators with a framework and guidelines to help select and deploy methane emissions detection and quantification technologies.

As part of a subnational climate coalition, the state is moving forward with a satellite data project to track methane emissions.

The new burner, created with the help of machine learning and additive manufacturing, promises high methane destruction efficiency and combustion stability even in windy conditions.

A new study finds that, of the roughly 15 million tonnes of methane coming from onshore oil and gas activities in the continental US annually, 70% comes from smaller, dispersed sources emitting less than 100 kg of methane per hour and 30% of emissions are from sites releasing less than 10 kg per hour.

This article explores three key themes for the oil and gas sector: the evolution of methane regulation at the state and federal levels, a preliminary forecast of why and how methane regulation will continue, and practical ways the oil and gas sector can prepare for enhanced enforcement scrutiny.

The analysis found that the decline in Permian Basin methane emissions equaled the annual carbon emissions avoided by every electric vehicle in the US.

The funding, aimed to help small operators, builds on nearly 100 cross-government actions designed to sharply reduce methane pollution.

Texas regulators are taking public comment about how they should implement an EPA rule to reduce methane leaks from the oil and gas industry.

The upstream oil and gas sector alone could cut as much as 4% of global greenhouse-gas emissions, according to a report from McKinsey. But this will take worldwide cooperation among industry players and capital investors.

This paper examines how data-science-driven work practices can result in substantial reductions in methane emissions compared with other leak-detection and -repair methods.
