Assets operated by West Texas Gas, Enterprise Products Partners LP, Energy Transfer LP and Targa Resources Corp., or their subsidiaries, were likely responsible for the majority of methane releases with estimated emissions rates of 100 kilograms an hour or more — so-called super-emitters — observed in the nine months through February of this year. ... Targa will review the data provided by Bloomberg and it will be “acted upon when appropriate,” the company said in a statement. Targa is making “significant progress” on methane reduction efforts and reported a 42% cut in emissions to the US Environmental Protection Agency in 2022, the latest year of complete data. Enterprise said it’s reviewing the data and if necessary will take appropriate action. West Texas Gas and Energy Transfer didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment. A new law charges large oil and gas companies for excessive methane emissions, beginning at $900 per metric ton this year and increasing to $1,200 a ton next year and $1,500 after that. The EPA is working on rules that would incorporate findings from super-emitter events when calculating the fee. The regulations also include some caveats like a provision that allows operators to effectively apply emissions credits from some lower-emitting assets to facilities that exceed limits. The process is known as netting emissions and may allow some operators to avoid paying the fees. ... The BNEF analysis is one of the first to attribute hundreds of individual methane observations from satellites to individual assets and operators. The study relied on data from the United Nations’ International Methane Emissions Observatory, which analyzes observations from multiple satellite systems and notifies governments and operators in an effort to halt leaks. The observations are released with a 45 to 75 day lag post-detection, although the agency doesn’t publicly attribute emissions to individual assets or operators."

A handful of oil and gas operators that process, store and transport natural gas in the US Permian Basin may be responsible for the lion’s share of major methane emissions events there, according to an analysis of satellite data by BloombergNEF. Assets operated by West Texas Gas, Enterprise Products, Energy Transfer and Targa Resources, or their subsidiaries, were likely responsible for the majority of methane releases with estimated emissions rates of 100 kilograms an hour or more — so-called super-emitters — observed in the nine months through February of this year. The analysis from my colleague Maria-Olivia T. is one of the first to attribute hundreds of individual methane observations from satellites to individual assets and operators and shows that a small group of companies and assets appear to be responsible for significant and mostly avoidable methane emissions. The study relied on data from the United Nations' International Methane Emissions Observatory - IMEO, which analyzes observations from multiple satellite systems and notifies governments and operators in an effort to halt leaks.

Oil drillers shifting to electric power not only opens the door for #renewable integration but demands it. In this transformative era, Sunnova Energy is poised to lead, leveraging #solar energy to provide a clear pathway to clean energy supply. The US currently faces a capacity gap to meet the impending surge in energy demand, and fossil fuels, given their costly nature, fall short of answering the call to action. Consumers deserve the right to choose their energy providers, who should go beyond mere installation to become comprehensive energy service providers. Sunnova's energy solutions consistently stand ready to address these challenges, playing a pivotal role in expanding generation capacity while delivering exceptional service.

The Permian Basin, a major U.S. energy hub, is set for significant growth in oil and natural gas production by late 2024. This expansion is driven by the new Matterhorn Express pipeline, which will increase natural gas transportation capacity. This pipeline not only boosts the efficiency of resource movement but also strengthens U.S. energy security by reducing reliance on foreign energy. As infrastructure advances, the Permian Basin continues to lead in shaping the future of energy production and sustainability. Read more at https://lnkd.in/e3UYYPrq #SpartanRoarBLOG
