methane emissions

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 But it also laments that methane emissions data are outdated, inaccurate, and unreliable.

Recent advances could make feasible the deployment of networks of methane sensors to detect the greenhouse gas at large facilities.

The first seminar looks at carbon capture, utilization, and storage as a way to achieve net-zero emissions. The second looks at the Methane Guiding Principles and its efforts to address methane throughout the natural gas supply chain.

Oil and gas producers in Europe commit to reporting emissions, but major US firms do not.

Canada’s methane emissions from the oil and gas sector in Alberta and Saskatchewan are almost twice as high as had been previously reported, according to a new study by federal government scientists.

A new study confirms the success of a natural-gas leak-detection tool pioneered by Los Alamos National Laboratory scientists that uses sensors and machine learning to locate leak points at oil and gas fields, promising new automatic, affordable sampling across a vast natural gas infrastructure.

IPIECA, the global oil and gas industry association for advancing environmental and social performance, has scheduled a virtual workshop for 2 November to look at methane science, regulations, voluntary initiatives, and global expectations.

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.
