Emission management
EQT is benchmarking its way to basin-leading productivity and relying on partnerships and new technology to turn KPIs into operational reality.
This article from the SPE Sustainable Development Technical Section (SDTS) explores how the next phase of methane performance will be defined less by pledges and more by measurement, response, and verifiable results.
While Uzbekistan has seen a significant drop in flaring, methane leaks from deteriorating infrastructure continue to reveal themselves to satellites in space.
-
Three leading global financial institutions recently announced updated environmentally linked targets aimed at reducing by 2030 their financed emissions in carbon-intensive sectors, including oil and gas. -
BPX Energy, BP’s US onshore upstream business, has expanded MiQ certification to 100% of BP’s US onshore facilities in Texas and Louisiana.
-
This case study highlights the effectiveness of unmanned aerial systems in enabling land-based operators to assess the relative seriousness of leaks efficiently by both localizing and quantifying their methane emission rates.
-
This paper discusses how methane detection from oil and gas infrastructure using remote sensing technologies enables operators to quantify and minimize the emissions while gaining insight and an understanding of their operations through data analytics.
-
Oil and gas companies are betting on the use of drones and robots for leak detection and methane emissions reduction.
-
Industry consortium pilot project successfully demonstrates the significant potential of satellite technology in methane emissions detection and mitigation.
-
The University of Texas at Austin will be home to a multidisciplinary research and education initiative, the Energy Emissions Modeling and Data Lab, which aims to address the growing need for accurate, timely, and clear accounting of greenhouse-gas emissions across global oil and natural gas supply chains.
-
The sites with the most CO2 emissions to capture are often far from the best rock to sequester it, leading to design projects for transport ships.
-
A methane-quantification tool was developed by Petronas on the basis of applicable methane sources listed in guidelines produced by the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative.
-
Satellite imaging of methane emissions offers the fossil fuel industry the empirical data it needs to fix problems that companies might not even know they have before the EPA starts to levy fines in 2024.
