Reducing methane emissions: Best practice guide – continual improvement

Methane Guiding Principles is a partnership of over 45 international organizations that are committed to reducing methane emissions from the natural gas supply chain.

This best practice guide focuses on continual improvement in methane management within the oil and gas industry. To achieve “methane excellence,” companies must set ambitious targets to reduce emissions, enhance measurement techniques, adopt mitigation strategies, and improve reporting practices. The guide highlights the need for senior and asset management commitment, ensuring that methane management becomes embedded in company culture, with clear expectations for all employees and contractors to adhere to relevant policies and practices.
