Description
This guide provides strategies for identifying and reducing methane emissions from venting sources in the oil and gas industry. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining an inventory of emissions from venting and offers best practices for mitigation. Key recommendations include avoiding or reducing venting from sources such as hydrocarbon liquid storage tanks, compressor seals, glycol dehydrators, gas well liquid removal, well-completion operations, and oil well casing head venting. If methane release is necessary, the guide suggests using vapor recovery or flaring as alternatives to venting. Additionally, it advises monitoring vents regularly and assessing them for potential improvements and additional control measures.
