One future is made up of 50+ member companies with the goal of less than 1% methane intensity by 2025 and is comprised of some of the largest natural gas production, gathering & boosting, processing, transmission & storage and distribution companies in the U.S. and represents more than 40% of the U.S. natural gas value […]
Veritas Protocols
Veritas’ technical protocols provide companies and countries with methane emissions reduction targets with a credible, consistent, verifiable, and transparent methodology to measuring methane emissions. These protocols provide a more streamlined, refined, and standardized approach to accurately measure methane emissions. This, in turn, supports reduction efforts of global methane emissions.
Documentation for OGMP 2.0 level 4 and level 5 methods
This document outlines the documentation requirements (list of information elements that a company should provide) for L4 and L5. For the most part, these have been described theoretically in implementation plans to date, but as companies transition into L4 and L5, UNEP will need a consistent basis to evaluate adherence to the TGD’s for the […]
