Certification basics

Oil and gas operators need independent, third-party verification of their methane emissions to meet demand from buyers, regulators, investors, and consumers.
 
MiQ Certification delivers this.
 
Operators can get certified quickly and by:
1. Reviewing the MiQ Standard and meeting with the MiQ team
2. Engaging an MiQ accredited auditor
3. Signing up to the MiQ Registry

The benefits of certified gas for operators

MiQ Certification provides operators the data needed to understand and reduce methane emissions.

The benefits of MiQ Certification:
– Quick and inexpensive
– Independent, third-party verification
– Preparation for regulation

MiQ Certification is also the only benchmark that meets new EU requirements for source-level reporting and third-party verification, and will enable regulatory compliance for exporters targeting the EU market.

Introducing the MiQ Standard

The MiQ Standard is a standalone framework to assess the methane emissions intensity and carbon (CO2e) intensity at the asset level from each stage of the natural gas supply chain and some stages of the crude oil and natural gas liquids supply chain. The MiQ Standard is followed by MiQ operators and used by accredited, independent auditors to assess an operator’s emissions intensity and overall emissions performance.

1. Intensities apply to onshore and offshore producers and operators of gathering & boosting and/or gas processing facilities.
2. Operators must also follow company practices and technology deployment requirements within the Relevant Standard to achieve a relevant grade.
