Emission management
This paper describes a deep-learning image-processing model that uses videos captured by a specialized optical gas-imaging camera to detect natural gas leaks.
This article describes a technology combining a compression unit with a flexible line to offer a flaring alternative for transferring hydrocarbons.
This paper aims to provide insights to address the challenge of identifying the optimal point within the gas-processing lineup for recovering a high-purity CO₂ stream suitable for sequestration.

DNO announced that it has brought its gas capture and injection program online in the Kurdistan region of Iraq. Already reaching the milestone of 1 Bcf of gas injected, the project is expected to reduce annual emissions from the company’s production by more than 300,000 tonnes of CO2 equivalent. -
After 2 years of testing, Shell is going all in on using high-flying technology to catch methane leaks to reduce its overall emissions to less than 1%.

Williams Companies announced a near-term goal of a 56% absolute reduction from 2005 levels in greenhouse-gas emissions by 2030, aiming for net-zero carbon emissions by 2050. Why is this significant, and where can emissions be mitigated in the midstream natural-gas gathering and boosting segment?

Using an underwater remotely operated vehicle, activists on board the Greenpeace ship Esperanza documented a large methane leak in the North Sea caused by a major blowout during an oil drilling operation 30 years ago.

Reported greenhouse-gas emissions from Canada’s oil patch have more than doubled in the year’s first half as changes to how they are measured revealed a more extensive picture of environmental damage, previously unreported industry data show.

OGCI Launches $1 Million Partnership With Payne Institute To Develop Web Platform To Map Gas FlaringThe Oil and Gas Climate Initiative has announced a technical and financial sponsorship commitment of nearly $1 million to the Payne Institute for Public Policy at Colorado School of Mines to develop a transparent web platform to support real-time mapping and tracking of global gas flaring data.

International Environmental Standards, the new company created by the merger of Project Canary and Independent Energy Standards, will combine continuous emissions-monitoring technology with TrustWell certification to create a provider of independent environmental, social, and governance performance.

Although based on “intensity” and not “absolute” emissions, oil giants say it’s a step toward net-zero goals for 2050.

The oil and gas industry is not the largest emitter of methane, but addressing the emissions still needs to be a priority, a recent panel said. Incentivizing lower emissions, following best practices, and creating transparency are key to bringing about this change.

Last fall, European Space Agency satellites detected huge plumes of methane leaking from the Yamal pipeline that carries natural gas from Siberia to Europe. Energy consultancy Kayrros estimated one leak was spewing out 93 tonnes of methane every hour.
