Revealed: certified low-methane U.S. LNG likely more polluting than claimed - Gas Outlook Certified low-methane U.S. LNG that is touted as meeting new EU law is likely more polluting than claimed, our investigation shows.

“I’ve been hearing that the industry can solve the methane problem since the early 2000s,” she [@txsharon.bsky.social] said. “But it hasn’t happened, and methane keeps climbing higher and higher. The only way methane levels will come down is to stop permitting new wells.”

Alberta’s oil and gas industry should be held to a fair methane standard For years, researchers and oil and gas engineers have suspected there’s a lot more methane being emitted than was being reported.

Alberta says it met its methane target early — but modern measurements tell a different story.

You can’t build an equivalency deal on obsolete numbers. Credible data is essential for a fair deal on April 1.
