A credible custody-transfer record depends on far more than the accuracy of a single meter. It is the product of an integrated measurement chain. While meter performance supports measurement-system integrity, commercial confidence also depends on traceability, governance, and authorization.
Despite significant progress in capturing associated gas for domestic use, Iraq remains the world’s third-largest gas-flaring country as it aims for higher oil and gas production targets.
The 2026 Upstream Scale Guidelines establish a common workflow for field measurements, scale modeling, and risk assessment to support more consistent operational decisions.

As drilling operations become increasingly digital, computer vision is emerging as a continuous safety layer that complements, not replaces, established safety practices. The challenge is no longer whether artificial intelligence can detect hazards, but how operators should deploy, integrate, and govern these systems to improve safety without adding operational comple…

A handful of operators have cut costs, project timelines, and emissions by redeploying offshore infrastructure, but there are limited opportunities to replicate these success stories.
-
This guest editorial examines how the most commonly used and cited methane emissions metric can create a misleading picture of upstream gas-handling performance for both the public and industry professionals.
