This paper proposes a shift in the timing of risk modeling to much further back within the job lifecycle, recognizing each function’s role in the mitigation of risk.
This article from the SPE Methane Technical Section features Arvind Ravikumar of the University of Texas at Austin and focuses on how the Energy Emissions Modeling and Data Lab is integrating satellite observations, facility-level measurements, operational data, and emissions inventories into more credible methane accounting for oil and gas systems.
The firm’s latest analysis puts the bulk of the blame on a fragmented supply chain.
