Methane emissions are a critical yet often underestimated component of global warming. As the world grapples with the escalating crisis of climate change, understanding the role of methane—second only to carbon dioxide (CO2) in its contribution to atmospheric warming—is paramount.

Lekverliezen zijn onderdeel van de diffuse emissies en betreffen lekkages bij afdichtingen van apparaten. De methode om lekverliezen te meten en te bereken is vastgelegd in de Europese norm NEN-EN 15446:2008. De kern van de methode is samengevat in het Handboek emissieberekening.

Gas flaring is a practice widely used at hydrocarbon production sites to dispose of natural gas in situations where the gas is not captured for sale or used locally and would otherwise be vented directly to the atmosphere or for reasons of safety.

On October 20, 2020, the European Commission announced a pivotal initiative in the fight against climate change: the adoption of a new “Methane Strategy.” This move is a significant advancement towards the commitments outlined in the European Green Deal and the Paris Agreement.

Optical Gas Imaging (OGI) is a groundbreaking technology revolutionizing the way we detect and manage gas emissions, particularly in the oil and gas sector. This advanced technique is pivotal for identifying methane and other hydrocarbon emissions, which are major contributors to environmental pollution and climate change.

Leak Detection and Repair (LDAR) is an integral process within the oil and gas industry, serving a pivotal role in environmental protection and sustainability efforts. This process is specifically designed to detect and repair unintentional atmospheric methane leaks, a task of increasing importance in the current era of environmental consciousness.
