Our Vision

MiQ has established a robust, industry leading certification system to facilitate the wholesale reduction of methane emissions across the natural gas supply chain. We are partnering with governments, regulators, climate leaders, and the natural gas industry to drive change on methane.

The transition to a world powered by clean energy will take time. Until then, we need to act fast on avoidable emissions.

Methane emissions from oil and gas are low-hanging fruit, and addressing them will have a great impact:

  1. Record production of oil, gas and coal has kept methane emissions from the sector above 120 million tonnes (Mt) annually.
  2. Around 70% of these emissions could be avoided today using existing technologies, often at a low cost.
  3. This would have the same short-term impact as removing 1.2bn polluting cars off the road.

Our certification system is a proven, scalable solution for reducing methane emissions, incentivizing improvements and ensuring accountability across the industry.
