methane emissions

Machine learning enables fast, cost-effective, and accurate methane emissions detection in remote areas.

Tracking down fugitive emissions has traditionally relied on small-scale detection efforts. This new project seeks to buck the trend by covering the Permian Basin with sensors.

Video shows a substantial share of oil and gas flares are unlit or faulty, revealing a previously overlooked methane source that could turn out to be one of the region’s biggest.

Enough gas to supply 7 million homes is leaking into the atmosphere above oil fields in Texas and New Mexico, the largest plume of climate-change-driving methane pollution ever recorded over a US oil field, a new study from Harvard University and Environmental Defense Fund shows.

Methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, is leaking from industry sites at rates equivalent to the annual carbon emissions of France and Germany combined, a new analysis using satellite data shows.

A system proposed by researchers at the University of California, Santa Barbara, uses hyperspectral imaging and machine learning to detect the specific wavelength of methane emissions.

The largest oil and gas major in the US is calling for tighter rules around methane monitoring, wellhead venting, and the replacement of equipment components with “high-leak potential.”

GHGSat announced a new service for visualizing greenhouse-gas emissions. The interactive online resource will be freely available and will be formally launched during COP26 in November.

As The Environmental Partnership celebrates its second anniversary, the coalition of oil and natural gas companies has grown 150% to 70 members while continuing efforts to reduce emissions from natural gas production.

Methane emissions from California garbage dumps far surpass emissions from oil fields, according to a NASA survey.
