This A4 poster is available in English, German, Mandarin, Russian and Spanish. We encourage you to share these Best Practices with your colleagues and the companies you work with.
This brochure provides a synopsis to each of the Best Practice Guides in one document to help those responsible for methane management.
The Gap Assessment Tool is part of our Best Practice Toolkit which is a series of Best Practice Guides, Synopses and Tools designed to improve methane emissions across the natural gas supply chain.
The Methane Cost Model provides the user with a screening tool to support the identification and evaluation of potential methane reduction projects across the natural gas supply chain.
Methane emissions in the natural gas supply chain arise from venting, fugitive emissions and incomplete combustion (methane slip).
A key step in reducing methane emissions is to identify and detect sources of the emissions.
Continual improvement of methane management efforts will eventually result in ‘methane excellence’, i.e., low methane emissions from oil and gas operations.
Operational repairs are vital for reducing methane emissions, by both repairing leaking equipment and minimizing emissions that arise during routine maintenance and repairs.

Pneumatic devices are powered by gas pressure. They are mainly used where electrical power is not available.
Venting simply means releasing gas arising from a process or activity straight into the atmosphere.
Unintentional leaks from pressurized equipment used in oil and gas operations can lead to gas being released to the atmosphere.
Natural gas, which consists mainly of methane, is used as a fuel throughout oil and gas operations, for compression, generating electricity, heating, dehydration and removing acid gas.
Flares burn flammable gases that would otherwise be released into the atmosphere. Flaring in upstream oil and gas operations may be needed for safety reasons, because of a lack of capacity to use produced gases, or as a part of…
Engineering design can be used to reduce methane emissions prior to the start of operations for new facilities or modifications to existing facilities.
Very often, when addressing greenhouse gas emissions from various sectors in the EU economy and in the world, a sector which is often overlooked or sidestepped is agriculture whose emissions have long proved complex to address.
The European Union (EU) agreed a climate neutrality target by 2050, including an interim 55% net Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emission reductions target by 2030.
Flaring and venting are the largest sources of methane emissions for the upstream oil and gas sector.
The European Commission (EC) adopted on 14 of October of 2020 a Communication on an EU strategy to reduce methane emissions.
Today, the oil and gas industry has a methane-emissions data challenge.
