Emission management
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.
This article from the SPE Methane Technical Section looks at how, as methane regulation becomes more consequential in global oil and gas trade, operators increasingly need emissions data that can withstand commercial scrutiny, regulatory review, and independent verification.
