EPA methane regulations

Full flexibility

Choose a detection threshold between 1 and 15 kg/h and a corresponding screening frequency that best fits your sites' emission profiles

Don't fly in blindly

Data between screening periods gives you all the insights you need to prepare and clean your sites well in advance

Efficient reporting

Keep follow-up requirements to a minimum. Note that reporting is only required if the average emission rate over a screening window of a few hours exceeds the chosen detection threshold

Know your sites in and out

24/7 coverage and super emitter detection come "for free"

How to use continuous monitoring for periodic screening

This article explores the advantages of continuous monitoring when used for periodic screenings. It includes guidance on the latest EPA regulations found in NSPS OOOOb and GHGRP Subpart W with an eye to efficiently reducing emissions through periodic screenings. Operators interested in upcoming regulations of sources built, modified, or reconstructed before December 6, 2022, can expect similar standards to those found in NSPS OOOOb, but only after state laws have been created in line with the EPA's EG OOOOc.

Continuous monitoring in light of the EPA’s OOOOb and Subpart W

Continuous methane emissions monitoring with Nubo Sphere equips oil and gas operators with year-round oversight of oil and gas assets, quick detection of fugitive methane emissions and actionable insights in support of LDAR activities. The EPA has introduced standards for using continuous monitoring aimed at reducing emissions without unduly increasing operators’ workloads. This article provides in-depth guidance to working with these regulations, focusing on work practices for continuous monitoring as applied in compliance with NSPS OOOOb and GHGRP Subpart W.

Unpacking the EPA's new regulations on methane emissions: how continuous monitoring supports compliance and qualifies super emitter emissions events

The EPA's revised New Source Performance Standards for methane emissions from oil and gas operations come into effect as soon as March 2024. Learn what you need to know to ensure compliance and continued success—especially when using a continuous monitoring solution such as Nubo Sphere.
