The satellite helping slow climate change
Environmental advocate Millie Chu Baird details the heat-trapping side effects of a planet full of methane — and explains why understanding where it comes from and taking steps to reduce it is the single most important thing we can do to affect climate change in our lifetimes. (MethaneSAT is part of the Audacious Project, TED’s […]
Methane Matters: Reducing emissions in the oil and gas sector
The combination of new regulatory measures and the availability of advanced detection technologies has created momentum to reduce methane emissions from the oil and natural gas sector. The Biden Administration is requiring oil and natural gas companies to measure, report, and reduce methane emissions through five separate rules issued by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), […]
Measurement informed inventories: First steps on a long journey
This resource discusses the evolving landscape of greenhouse gas inventories and introduces the concept of “measurement-informed inventories” (MIIs). MIIs incorporate real measurement data to provide a more accurate picture of methane emissions. The seminar examines various methodologies for generating MIIs, including differences in how measurement data is reconciled with top-down data and the specific purpose […]
MGP, Stanford University: Methane sensing aircraft & satellites
Stanford University’s Sahar El Labadi presents a multi-year synthesis of aircraft and satellite methane sensing evaluations, covering detection techniques, blind testing protocols, and platform-specific performance.
EU methane regulation and consequences for LNG
This webinar explores the implications of the EU Methane Regulation, with a particular focus on imported natural gas and LNG. It addresses the major regulatory changes introduced, examines how the oil and gas industry has responded so far, and outlines key considerations for companies preparing for compliance. The session also discusses the potential role of […]
Methane policy frameworks: overview & comparison
Kamila Piotrowska, Head of EU Policy and Advocacy at Baker Hughes presents a high-level overview and comparison of methane policy frameworks during the Methane Guiding Principles 2023 Masterclass. Kamila discusses regulations and voluntary initiatives and touches on the Methane Policy Toolkit.
Methane emissions avoidance strategies
TC Energy presents strategies to avoid emissions (hot taps, ILL, bundling, flaring). This methane reduction project case study was presented at the Methane Guiding Principles 2023 Masterclass by Andrew Willard, Manager of Emissions Reduction at TC Energy.
Pneumatic devices for methane reduction: case study
This methane reduction project case study was presented at the Methane Guiding Principles 2023 Masterclass by Jesse Sandlin, Methane Reduction Facility Engineering Advisor at Chevron. Jesse talks in detail about pneumatic controllers/devices, why they are used and how different controllers can be used for different solutions.
Mitigating pipeline blowdowns for methane reduction
Examples and best practices for blowdowns presented by Nathan Eifler of TC Energy at Methane Guiding Principles 2023 Masterclass.
How to monitor methane flare emissions with Flare.IQ
This case study was presented by Gerard Bottino at Baker Hughes and Peter Evans at BP during the Methane Guiding Principles 2023 Masterclass. BP and Baker Hughes discuss improving flare performance and methane destruction efficiency using continuous monitoring technologies.
