MARCOGAZ – Survey Methane Emissions for Gas Transmission in Europe
The impact of Greenhouse Gases on climate change has been recognized for some time which has led to measures aimed to reduce global warming.

The impact of Greenhouse Gases on climate change has been recognized for some time which has led to measures aimed to reduce global warming. Methane (CH4) which is the major component of Natural Gas is identified as a Greenhouse Gas.

Global climate change led to an intensive discussion about Green house Gases (GHG).
In an international context where decarbonisation of the energy systems is crucial for accelerating the energy transition and contribute to the European goal of achieving the Paris targets, methane (CH4) emissions are considered to have an important impact on the gas sector.
Making climate neutrality a reality is a top priority for the European Commission, as it is for the European gas industry. Representing around 4% of total European1 methane emissions, gas system operators have significantly decreased methane emissions since 1990, thanks to the implementation of several mitigation measures.
Enagás is a midstream company. It is a leading natural gas infrastructure company in Spain
and the Technical Manager of the Spanish gas system.
An Eye on Methane: International Methane Emissions Observatory 2021 Report describes how state actors can take action to curb methane emissions from the fossil fuel industry, and what progress has been made as part of the decarbonization process, particularly in the energy sector.
Country/venture/asset level reporting is the lowest reporting level for the OGMP 2.0. Reporting at Level 1 is
reserved for operations where a company has a very limited information on the operations and methane
emissions situation.
