“…This conclusion is in agreement with findings from other recent studies that have shown that O&NG NMHC emissions are constituting an increasing fraction of the urban and rural VOC mix at sites downwind of O&NG basins (Schade & Roest, 2015;Vinciguerra et al, 2015) in the U.S. Similar observations were reported for the United Kingdom: While most C2-C8 hydrocarbons steadily declined from 1993 to 2012, ethane and propane, which are mostly associated to NG emissions, have remained near their 1993 values (Derwent et al, 2017).…”

“…This finding is in agreement with other previous work that has shown declining light NMHCs in U.S. urban atmospheres (Bishop & Stedman, 2008;Warneke et al, 2012). This general behavior is also in accord with observations outside of the United States, mainly in Europe, where urban NMHCs have been steadily declining since~1990 (Derwent et al, 2017;Monks et al, 2009;Von Schneidemesser et al, 2010). As mentioned earlier, a recent study of C2-C8 hydrocarbons in the United Kingdom using 1993 to 2012 data found declining concentrations of most ≥C4 VOC, whereas ethane and propane concentrations have remained near 1993 values (Derwent et al, 2017).…”

“…These emissions ratios are significantly higher than those observed by Gilman et al (2013) (1.09) and Swarthout et al (2013) (1.00) at BAO downwind of onshore natural gas sources. Derwent et al (2017) reported an ethane to propane ratio of 2.4 from natural gas leakage at Marylebone Road, London, suggesting that the high ratios observed in this work could be as a result of fugitive emissions of raw natural gas.…”
