…by position, from high-bleed pneumatic devices, releasing an average of 4.1T of methane/device/year to pnuematic pumps and intermediate devices, releasing 1.4T, through to low-bleed pneumatic devices releasing 160kg/device/year. It allows…
…particularly economical for mitigating methane emissions, with a potential abatement cost of $20/ton of CO2-equivalents avoided. 750,000 bleeding pneumatic devices around the oil and gas industry are the largest single source…
…oil, 80bcfd of gas, 22Mboed of total production, 430,000 producing wells, 800,000 pneumatic devices and 60,000 flares. All of this is disaggregated by acreage positions, by operator and by basin….
…component are compressor seals (1-100Tpa) and millons of pneumatic devices (0.01-10Tpa), which each comprise c20-30% of total upstream leaks. Potentially overlooked categories include wellheads, storage tanks and workover practices. All…
…pneumatic devices that tend to leak 0.01 – 10 Tpa of methane. Or they are deploying an incredible array of new sensing technologies, so they can immediately identify fugitive emissions…
…and Eagle Ford at 0.4-0.5% (chart below, which also correlates the leakage rates with the number of pneumatic devices). The fairest comparison must also add in the methane leaks from…
