Methane and flaring: detect emissions, reduce flaring, convert gas to value
Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ manages methane emissions and routine flaring through baseline assessment, continuous monitoring, fugitive emissions detection and repair, flare elimination, and gas-to-value conversion.
Knowing where to start
Managing methane emissions is new for many industries. An avalanche of technologies, vendors, regulations, cost curves, and data raises uncertainties about which technologies work best for your particular asset, operations, and business economics.
You're not alone—we can help.
Demonstrated reductions in methane emissions and flaring
75% reduction in vented methane emissions
Ensign Natural Resources reduced vented methane emissions by deploying an integrated multiphase fluid treatment and reinjection package during well testing, enabling recovered products to generate revenue while meeting stringent environmental requirements throughout the campaign.

Frequently asked questions about methane and flaring elimination
How do oil and gas operators reduce methane emissions from their operations?
Operators reduce methane emissions by identifying the highest-volume sources first, repairing or replacing the equipment driving them, and monitoring continuously to verify results. In the Eagle Ford Shale, replacing pneumatic-valve test separators with the Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ Vx Spectra flowmeter eliminated the primary source of vented methane on each well pad and cut emissions by 75%.
What is routine flaring and how can it be eliminated?
Routine flaring is the controlled burning of associated natural gas during normal oil and gas production, typically because gas gathering infrastructure is absent or the economics of capture have not been established. Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ helps operators eliminate routine flaring by identifying viable alternatives for each flaring scenario—including gas-to-value conversion, reinjection, and infrastructure modifications—so that associated gas is captured and monetized rather than burned. Where elimination is not yet possible, Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ works to maximize combustion efficiency and reduce total CO2e per flaring event.
What methane monitoring technologies are available for oil and gas operations?
Methane monitoring technologies span satellite detection for large-area surveys, drone-based optical gas imaging for facility-level screening, and ground-mounted continuous sensors for site-level quantification. Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ has evaluated more than 100 methane monitoring technologies and tested more than 25 in the field. Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ selects, combines, and validates the monitoring approach that fits each operator’s asset type, regulatory environment, and reporting requirements.
How does replacing test separators with a multiphase flowmeter reduce methane emissions?
Gas-to-value conversion captures associated natural gas that would otherwise be flared or vented and converts it into a usable commercial product—such as electricity, liquefied natural gas, compressed natural gas, or petrochemical feedstocks. Ä¢¹½´«Ã½ gas-to-value consulting helps operators identify which conversion pathway is commercially viable for their asset, location, and production volumes, turning a source of emissions into a source of revenue.
