The broader value of emissions detection and quantification
The Broader Value of Emissions Detection and Quantification, authored by Daniel Zimmerle of Colorado State University’s Methane Emissions Technology Evaluation Center (METEC), provides his perspective on the multifaceted benefits of Leak Detection and Quantification (LDAQ) systems beyond mere regulatory compliance.
Shining a light on the “coal versus LNG emissions” debate
In this resource, Wood Mackenzie has used its proprietary data as well as credible third-party sources to prepare a rigorous comparison of lifecycle emissions of US LNG and coal in power generation in the two key markets of NW Europe and China. Results indicate that despite typically higher methane losses than LNG from other regions, […]
How environmental conditions shape methane monitoring from space
In this report explores how environmental conditions — such as cloud cover and terrain roughness — can impact the availability of satellite data in different regions around the world over the course of the year. By providing these insights, the report aims to help new users understand how environmental factors might affect data coverage, highlighting […]

Increasing levels of Methane transparency
The Methane Transparency platform by RMI is an interactive educational tool explaining the landscape of methane detection technologies. It demonstrates how various methane detection methods—such as satellites, aerial surveys, and ground-based sensors—complement each other to identify and mitigate methane emissions effectively.
MRV of methane emissions and consequences for LNG Trade
This paper provides an overview of progress on the measurement, reporting and verification of methane emissions from 2022-25 with a particular focus on the LNG sector, and considers how this sector may be impacted by regulation to be introduced in the period up to 2030, particularly in the European Union and the United States.
EU methane import requirements and impact on gas purchases
This paper explores the evolving policy landscape, with a focus on the EU Methane Import Requirements and highlights alignments with the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership 2.0 (OGMP 2.0). It analyzes the process leading to the adoption of the import standard, along with early industry reactions and compliance strategies, drawing on interviews with oil and […]
Three big questions on EU methane regulation
Three Big Questions on the EU Methane Regulation explores key uncertainties facing global gas exporters as they prepare to meet the EU’s emerging methane requirements. While some details remain to be finalized through secondary legislation, this paper focuses on three critical challenges: calculating emissions at the producer level and across the supply chain, navigating third-party […]
Scoping methane emissions in ASEAN’s oil and gas sector
The report explores the current emissions landscape across major oil and gas producing countries in the region, identifying gaps in data, monitoring, and regulatory frameworks. It highlights early progress made by national oil companies (NOCs) such as Pertamina, Petronas, and PTTEP, who are already piloting methane reduction technologies. Policy mapping reveals varying levels of readiness […]
