🟢 Cutting oil and gas methane emissions is a powerful opportunity that pays economic and climate dividends – but half of the industry hasn’t committed to the standards needed to target and track progress. 🧵

@UNEP @DLR_en 💡 Older platforms in shallow waters showed higher emission intensities than newer, deep-water sites. Upgrading or replacing aging infrastructure could deliver major climate gains, as methane accounted for two-thirds of the total carbon intensity from these facilities.

@UNEP @DLR_en 🔴 Findings show that most #MethaneEmissions came not from flaring, as often reported, but from venting and fugitive leaks — highlighting the value of direct measurement to confirm the true source of emissions and target solutions.

@UNEP 🛩️ Scientists from @DLR_en conducted the first-ever airborne measurements of methane & carbon dioxide from 57 West African offshore facilities — a region where platforms have long been difficult to observe due to access challenges & cloud cover that limits satellite detection.
