The Texas Methane and Flaring Coalition has released the first edition of the report, which it says will help lawmakers, media, and the general public understand the latest developments around methane and emissions.
-
Amid investor pressure, ExxonMobil taps its Poker Lake facility in New Mexico as the company’s first for natural-gas certification.
-
Recent field studies have shown that measurements taken with aerial light detection and ranging are more effective in discovering various sources of methane emissions than onsite optical gas imaging (OGI) and that policy and regulations that rely on OGI alone risk missing a significant portion of total emissions.
-
Leak detection and repair (LDAR) is essential in every upstream asset. This paper presents best practices and case studies about how LDAR can help to minimize methane emissions.
-
The year-long research project is aimed at proving the feasibility of reliable, space-based emissions monitoring.
-
The Environmental Protection Agency has underestimated methane emissions caused by oil and gas production by as much as 76%, according to research published in the Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres.
-
President Biden is seeking plans from pipeline operators aimed at curbing methane emissions in their daily operations.
-
This paper presents a field trial that compares multiple methane detection and quantification methods and compares the measurements with engineering estimates of emissions.
-
At least a dozen satellites are being built to orbit the Earth in search of methane leaks. They will be measuring methane flows, and some will be able to identify the source down to the facility level.
-
The Environmental Defense Fund's report called "Hitting the Mark" is a roadmap for the oil and gas industry to obtain and report good data on methane emissions. But it also laments that methane emissions data are outdated, inaccurate, and unreliable.
