The US oil and gas industry is emitting less carbon than it used to   American oil and gas companies have cut back on methane emissions even as production reached record heights, a new analysis shows.   The U.S. energy industry continues to extract record amounts of fossil fuels, despite climate activists’ calls to “keep it in the ground.” But while oil and gas extraction has increased in recent years, the carbon emissions from that industrial activity have actually fallen, a new analysis has found.   https://lnkd.in/eTFGjjrZ   #TrioPetroleum #EnergyIndependence #OilAndGas #SustainableEnergy #NYSE #TPET Trio Petroleum Corp (NYSE: TPET)

The EPA's proposed rule aims to hold large emitters accountable by introducing a Waste Emissions Charge on excess methane emissions. The proposed rule will require a per-metric-ton (mt) fee on methane emissions above the identified thresholds released by most oil and gas operations.

Critically important progress + next steps --> "Following the introduction of regulatory requirements in 2020, the Province is well on track to achieve its 2025 target of reducing methane emissions from the oil and gas sector by 45% from 2014 levels. The BC Energy Regulator has amended three regulations under the Energy Resource Activities Act to strengthen these requirements in order to achieve the Province’s 2030 target of a 75% reduction from 2014 levels, and put B.C. on the path to near-elimination of methane emissions by 2035." https://lnkd.in/gC6m7BKS

If only there was an innovative turnkey solution which could help North Sea oil and gas firms to monitor and reduce their emissions. It could be called the Emissions Elimiation Program and be delivered in a partnership by recognised, homegrown, industry leaders.

A complicated article that brings about many good discussion points, some on the policy side such as: how effective are carbon credits? What is the role of government in creating policy and incentives to support emerging decarbonization technology? On the other hand it really also makes one wonder how effective carbon capture is as a technology and if it will ever be feasible on large scale outside of industries that are impossible to fully decarbonize upstream such as oil and gas? It seems that ny far the cheapest way to "capture" a metric ton of CO2 is to decarbonize upstream and avoid emitting it into the atmosphere in the first place.

Actually, there are practical, reliable, proven, cost effective solutions that would eliminate all methane emissions from the oil and gas industry right now. #Questor has solutions that get us to #netzero for zero cost by starting with #methane.

Oil and gas companies emit more climate-warming methane than EPA reports Oil and gas drillers are releasing more climate-warming methane than the government estimates, a new study shows. Energy Read more on NPR https://ift.tt/eyaSzQ0
