As studies point to increased emissions, ExxonMobil is stepping up efforts to detect and mitigate methane release.

Instead of burning money, why not make electricity? This is the big pitch being made by a growing number of technology companies who see green every time they see a red-hot flare burning associated gas.

Remote sensing technologies can be applied for a wide range of gas-leak flow rates in three main cases—major leaks in crisis management, medium-size leaks in safety monitoring, and small leaks in environmental monitoring.

The signed framework agreement would have GHGSat use its satellite-based sensors to monitor greenhouse gases coming from select Shell facilities.

Oil and gas producers might have been expected to welcome a decision to loosen regulations affecting their business. But, their reaction to the Trump administration’s move to roll back methane-emissions rules revealed at least tactical divisions on climate policy.

An EPA plan would end oversight of methane leaks at oil wells, a move that risks undermining the climate sales pitch for natural gas.

More than 60 producers participate in the program designed to reduce wellsite emissions.

Natural-gas production in the United States has increased 46% since 2006, but there has been no significant increase of total US methane emissions and only a modest increase from oil and gas activity, according to a new NOAA study.

Royal Dutch Shell urged US President Donald Trump’s administration to tighten restrictions on greenhouse gas emissions from oil and gas production, instead of weakening them as planned.

The deployment and adoption of digital technologies across the oil and gas value chain could help scale the effect of the industry’s methane-reduction efforts, finds a new report.
