“These Tedlar bags cost about $20… and we averaged 0.22 scfm VS EPA factors of 13.3 scfm across 32 pneumatic pumps…” RY 2024: 300+ companies will likely owe a Methane Fee of $1M+ RY 2025: We are seeing 50%+ increase in fees due to regulatory changes The natural next question is, “What are some paper-based reductions or low-hanging opportunities that we can take advantage of?” In this webinar clip, Paul Espenan discusses how Diversified Energy is evaluating the impact of using the new Method 2’s empirical emission data for pneumatic pumps and seeing immediate reported methane, and therefore methane fee, reductions.

See the Subpart W language for how to use calibrated bags to quantify emissions here 👇 40 CFR 98.234 (c) Use calibrated bags (also known as vent bags) only where the emissions are at near-atmospheric pressures and below the maximum temperature specified by the vent bag manufacturer such that the bag is safe to handle. The bag opening must be of sufficient size that the entire emission can be tightly encompassed for measurement till the bag is completely filled (1) Hold the bag in place enclosing the emissions source to capture the entire emissions and record the time required for completely filling the bag. If the bag inflates in less than one second, assume one second inflation time. (2) Perform three measurements of the time required to fill the bag, report the emissions as the average of the three readings. (3) Estimate natural gas volumetric emissions at standard conditions using calculations in § 98.233\(t\). (4) Estimate CH4 and CO2 volumetric and mass emissions from volumetric natural gas emissions using the calculations in § 98.233\(u\) and \(v\).
