How to Get Accurate and Error-Proof Methane Emission Figures

Europe today relies more on standard methane emission factors than direct measurements. This leaves room for interpretation and possible doubt, leading regulators to question the confidentiality of the reported data.

If the oil and gas industry sector wishes to reduce methane emissions effectively, correct identification and quantification are required. Inventorying all sources for a credible baseline is a possibility. Quantification follows upon identification. If the existing condition is identified, it is possible to identify a plan for structural changes.

Globally, experience in reducing Fugitive emission surveys tells us that equipment can be expected to leak 1 to 2 percent. A focused repair effort can quickly lead to a 70 percent reduction in emissions. A focused Vent and Flare Loss Monitoring Program delivers a rapid return on investment at a limited cost and an annual LDAR program for fugitive emissions. Quick repair of the most significant emitting passing valves results in a payback of just five months. Also, methane pollution may be detected and high, without significant budgets, in the supply chain.

Direct on-site measurements may be better for gaining more insight into methane emissions, but people are still doing the Wellsite surveys Alberta. Often, people commit errors. How can those measurements minimize human mistakes?

A possible solution is to acquire the data seamlessly from measuring straight into the database. PPM values are recorded and automatically imported from the measurement system into the database using different measuring equipment and pollution control tools. The software automatically captures P&ID extracts and photos, which allows fast report generation and sets clear priorities for the repair team. The application also runs smoothly through a mobile app on desktops, ATEX tablets, and ATEX phones. That means that accurate data on emissions are always at your fingertips: the result in faster measurements, safe and error-proof, data capture, and reporting.

The software captures and reports the emissions over the entire value chain. The application implements all the emission protocols. Whether your company has a country-specific environmental regulation, is internationally defined, or even specific to your company, the software is flexibly designed to suit your needs and be able to handle customized inquiries.
