Advanced analytical techniques are important to make an integrated interpretation of methane emissions data sensors with different spatial and temporal characteristics (satellites, airborne, continuous monitoring cameras, etc.). What is the state of such integrative solutions, and how can results assist the reporting of methane emissions to regulatory authorities?
Certification of natural gas production is increasingly prominent as a means for both gas producers and buyers to prove their ESG credentials, and to differentiate gas traded in international markets. What standards are developing to enable data transparency and certification of produced gas? What is the outlook for regulations to mandate such certifications? How important is certification in practice for gas buyers across different regional markets?
S&P Global Commodity Insights will give an overview of ground-breaking analysis into the carbon intensity of North American natural gas supply chains using detailed emissions models, including methane detection from satellites. They will discuss how differentiated supply chains, including certified natural gas, could be compared to S&P Global benchmarking to help demonstrate lower-carbon pathways and emissions reductions.
