OGCI is working on projects with many different organizations to amplify efforts to reduce methane emissions, decarbonize transport and accelerate CCUS and natural climate solutions.
Launched in 2022 by OGCI members and open to the enitre industry. The aim is to get companies to treat their methane emissions as they do safety: aiming for zero and striving to do what is needed to get there.
Multiple signatories and supporting organizations
Knowledge sharing, Staff time, Technical expertise
Programme to identify and mitigate assets with high methane releases, operating initially in Iraq, Kazakhstan, Algeria and Egypt.
GHGSat, Carbon Limits
Funding, Staff time, Technical expertise
Collaboration with the CEM's CCUS initiative to accelerate the global development of an economically viable, environmentally responsible and safe CCUS industry, recognising the need for strong public-private co-operation.
Clean Energy Ministerial
Staff time, Technical expertise
A six-year programme, launched in 2019, to classify CO2 storage resources on a public web-based platform using the standardized SRMS methodology.
Global CCS Institute
Funding, Staff time, Technical expertise
Creation of an open-source platform designed to support policy-makers, industrial emitters, and transport and storage service providers as they create CCUS hubs around the world.
Global CCS Institute, Clean energy Ministerial CCUS Initiative, IEA GHG, BCG
Funding, Staff time, Technical expertise
Collaboration to demonstrate the feasibility of using carbon capture on-board a vessel.
Stena Bulk, Global Centre for Maritime Decarbonization
Funding, Technical expertise
The Global Gas Flaring Explorer project will, through the development of a transparent web platform, deliver real-time and improved monitoring, mapping, visibility and transparency of gas flaring data at oil production sites around the world. The tracking of flare volumes over time will improve the ability to monitor and demonstrate progress towards the World Bank’s Zero Routine Flaring by 2030 initiative, which OGCI advocates for and supports.
Payne Institute, Global Gas Flaring Reduction Partnership
Funding, Data, Technical expertise
OGCI is supporting ISO to develop a standard that will include guidance on cross-cutting issues like lifecycle risk assessment and management.
ISO
Staff time, Technical expertise
Develop a set of recommended industry practices on how best to deploy new and established detection and quantification technologies to reduce methane emissions.
IOGP, IPIECA
Funding, Staff time, Technical expertise
The NCS Alliance is a multi-stakeholder, cross-sector initiative that is committed to enable scalable and cost-effective natural climate solutions for mitigating climate change.
WBCSD
Staff participation in working groups and member meetings
Four-year collaboration with the IEA CCUS Unit to support technical and policy analysis for CCUS, including geological storage of CO2.
International Energy Agency
Staff time, Technical expertise
Support for industry, government and other stakeholders to implement the Methane Guiding Principles and reduce methane emissions across the natural gas supply chain. In 2021, OGCI is helping to create an interactive toolkit for measurement of methane from flares.
Funding, Project management support
Analyze different available technologies applicable to different sectors of the natural gas supply chain to estimate the maximum emissions abatement at a determined cost. Outcome feeds ICL database
Imperial College London
Funding, Data, Technical expertise
Improve identification and quantification of global methane emissions from the oil and gas industry through a series of scientific studies.
