Workshop

Gas is envisaged as the fuel of choice in the power sector and is the ideal fuel to help transition toward clean, sustainable, and affordable energy access. As vital as gas is for electricity generation, the petrochemical industry, the transportation sector, and heating, many oil operators flare associated gas, a by-product of oil extraction, at the wellhead or gathering stations.

  • The objectives of this webinar are to go over the best practices and technology enablers that can detect gas flaring volumes and methane emissions and the progress made thus far to eliminate them, as well as proposing fit-for-purpose policies and regulations to optimize gas flaring in the context of the Circular Carbon Economy.
