The new report shows that the intensity of methane emissions in the Permian Basin declined by more than half over 2 years.
A new paper from researchers at Heriot-Watt University outlines key advances in chemistry that are driving the push in carbon capture technology.
The nonprofit said the satellite likely is unrecoverable but that it will continue to analyze the data it had collected.

Emissions of methane from the industrial sector have been vastly underestimated, researchers from Cornell University and the Environmental Defense Fund have found. -
Oilfield flares are a bright indicator of rapidly rising oil production that exceeds pipeline capacity. And it raises the question: Why are oil companies in such a hurry?
-
The US Environmental Protection Agency recently finalized a voluntary disclosure program for new owners of upstream oil and gas facilities designed to encourage them to find, correct, and self-report violations of the Clean Air Act, in particular those associated with emissions from storage vessels.

North Dakota oil drillers are falling far short of the state’s goals to limit the burning of excess natural gas at wellheads, 5 years after the state adopted the rules to reduce the wasteful and environmentally harmful practice.
-
The production of oil and natural gas in West Texas is booming, but it’s coming at a cost to residents who are regularly exposed to unhealthy levels of air pollution, according to a report issued by an environmental group.
-
America’s hottest oil patch is producing so much natural gas that, by the end of last year, producers were burning off more than enough of the fuel to meet residential demand across the whole of Texas.
-
A wave of satellites set to orbit the Earth will be able to pinpoint producers of greenhouse gases, right down to an individual leak at an oil rig.
-
A new report from the Environmental Defense Fund and the Environmental Council of the States Shale Caucus recommends a new framework for approving technologies and methodologies.

The new satellite will build on the success of the company's demonstration satellite Claire, which has performed over 2,500 observations of oil and gas facilities as well as other natural and industrial sources of carbon dioxide and methane.
-
The oil and gas major has set aside $100 million to fund projects that will deliver new greenhouse gas emissions reductions in its upstream oil and gas operations.
