Comparing facility-level methane emission rate estimates at natural gas gathering and boosting stations

Abstract: Vaughn, Comparing facility-level methane emission rate estimates at natural gas gathering and boosting stations. Elem Sci Anth, 5: 71. DOI: https://doi.org/10.1525/elementa.257 RESEARCH ARTICLEComparing facility-level methane emission rate estimates at natural gas gathering and boosting stations , Daniel Zimmerle * Coordinated dual-tracer, aircraft-based, and direct component-level measurements were made at midstream natural gas gathering and boosting stations in the Fayetteville shale (Arkansas, USA).

“…All 4 of these wellpads undergoing unloading were excluded from statistical analyses. Additional details about the annual count and average duration of these routine scheduled episodic events are included in the work of Bell et al (2017), where emissions from unloadings are incorporated into final results.…”

“…The tracer flux ratio experiment captures snapshots of the sites emissions, and so the duration and frequency of these plunger unloadings and their overlap in time with each individual downwind measurement will impact the final average emission rate. While these unloading sites were not included in any of the statistical analysis in this paper, such sites are important in understanding the overall emissions of the production sector and have been included in the results of Bell et al (2017).…”

“…Typical examples in gasfields (Vaughn et al, ; Vaughn et al, ) would include methane emitted not only from readily discovered leaks around gaswells but also from deliberate operations such as flaring, venting, and pipe maintenance; unburned gas entrained in compressor exhausts during operation; and also emissions from known processes such as water handling, which can be redesigned or better contained. Episodic venting (Vaughn et al, ), which is deliberate, is particularly addressable.…”
