We are at a critical juncture in the fight against climate change. At least, that is what Governments, marketers, and companies the world over tell us. But then why aren’t they talking about methane emissions?

Pat Roberts chats to Saima Yarrow of MiQ about the current challenge to inform suppliers and buyers of methane emissions associated with their LNG supply chains and also how to reform these through methane abatement activities.
A new collaboration between two leading organisations is set to rapidly reduce damaging methane emissions from the production and transport of liquefied natural gas (LNG).
In the wake of the United Nations Environment Programme’s publication earlier this month of a new report on global methane emissions, two established certification organisations said May 13 they will collaborate to help reduce methane emissions from the production and transport of liquefied natural gas.
If we do not halve our annual greenhouse gas emissions by the end of this decade, our 2050 net zero targets will be out of reach.
The role of finance in reducing methane emissions from the oil and gas sector as part of the clean energy transition.
If we are to drive down methane emissions, the investment community should look to leverage its influence to encourage producers to address methane emissions.
Northeast Natural Energy Announces the Use of LUMEN Terrain as it Seeks Independent Certification of the Company’s Natural Gas Production through Equitable Origin and MiQ Standards.
EQT Corporation today announced its commitment to seek independent certification of a majority of its produced natural gas under certification standards developed by Equitable Origin and MiQ.
Certification can significantly reduce methane emissions and simplify complex import regulations for the EU.
We believe there is a significant opportunity to adopt a standardised global methodology for determining methane emissions across the LNG value chain.
Along with the need to tackle CO2 emissions, methane leakage is now rising to the top of the agenda of the energy sector, with many gas and LNG buyers in Europe set to consider the issue in contractual negotiations with suppliers.
Environment Journal talks to Georges Tijbosch, senior advisor at MiQ, an independent, not-for-profit partnership that aims to facilitate a reduction in methane emissions from the oil and gas sector.
Methane certification has the potential to help the new priorities by providing companies with the means – and motivation – to reduce their methane footprint and by helping government regulators develop rules for emissions by setting standards for these emissions.
On 4th February, we hosted our first event as MiQ, which focused on the role differentiated natural gas can play in methane abatement efforts.
If LNG is going to compete against other energy sources for its place as part of the energy transition, then the non-transparent nature of the industry must change, and fast.
The certification of gas supply based on its methane emissions performance could become a key component in global gas trade in the future, a senior official at a newly launched methane emissions partnership said in an interview with S&P Global Platts.
If LNG is going to compete against other energy sources for its place as part of the energy transition, then the non-transparent nature of the industry must change, and fast.
On 4 December 2020, MiQ’s George Tijbosch will be speaking at a joint webinar organised by the Florence School of Regulation and the Environmental Defense Fund – ‘The impact of the EU methane strategy on the natural gas market’.
