Explore 12 articles covering in-depth insights and practical guidance on satellite-based emissions monitoring & mrv.
Documents how a Permian Basin operator used GHGSat and aerial surveys to identify and fix methane leaks, reducing basin-level emissions intensity from 2.8% to 0.9% of production over 18 months. Covers the integration of satellite alerts with ground crews, cost of repair programs vs. lost-gas revenue recovered, and lessons for OGMP 2.0 reporting.
Analyzes satellite methane detection data showing that actual emissions from oil and gas operations are 50–80% higher than national inventories report. EMIT has flagged 750+ super-emitters since August 2022, while TROPOMI data reveals Turkmenistan, the US Permian Basin, and Iraqi Kurdistan as persistent hotspots. Tracks detection volumes, regional patterns, and closure rates.
Examines how satellite MRV is reshaping emissions accountability: MethaneSAT maps emissions across entire oil and gas basins at 100 m × 400 m resolution, while EMIT on the ISS has identified 750+ methane super-emitters since 2022. Explores data fusion challenges, regulatory integration gaps, and the path from voluntary transparency to mandatory verification.
Introduces satellite-based measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) for greenhouse gas emissions. Over 30 satellites now measure CO₂ and methane from orbit, with GHGSat detecting individual facility emissions as small as 100 kg/hr of methane. Explains how satellite MRV underpins carbon markets, regulatory enforcement, and corporate Scope 1–3 reporting.
Compares three leading satellite methane monitoring systems: GHGSat (25 m resolution, facility-level targeting, commercial), MethaneSAT (100 m × 400 m, basin-wide mapping, open data), and TROPOMI on Sentinel-5P (7 km, global daily coverage, free). Evaluates detection thresholds from 100 kg/hr to 10,000 kg/hr, data latency, and MRV certification suitability.
