Methane Emission Reduction Panel – Industry Successes and Opportunities

Governments in Canada and around the world are focusing on reducing methane emissions. Oil & gas operators are understandably uncertain about how they can meet such ambitious targets. This panel will feature representatives from industry, service providers, and the regulator to help answer common questions such as: How can a producer figure out their sources & quantities of methane? What is the business value of tackling any of these? Of all the technology out there, how should I prioritize what I deploy? What are my options for compliance?
Moderator: Jessica Shumlich – CEO, Highwood Emissions
Panelists:
- Joshua Anhalt – President, GreenPath Energy
