This 2-hour self-paced online training course on Methane Guiding Principles (MGP) teaches delegates why and how to manage methane emissions across the natural gas value chain. Explore technologies and best practices, and learn how to evaluate methane detection, measurement, and reduction options.
Consisting of bite-sized pre-recorded video content, quizzes to consolidate learning, reading lists and relevant resources.
Providing access to energy, while addressing global climate change, is one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. Natural gas plays a major role in meeting global energy demand today. Since natural gas consists mainly of methane, a potent greenhouse gas, its part in the transition to a low carbon future will be influenced by the extent to which the oil and gas supply chain reduce its methane emissions.
We have partnered with Methane Guiding Principles (MGP) and Dr Adam Hawkes / experts from Imperial College London’s Sustainable Gas Institute to offer a Masterclass that is intended to help participants understand methane emissions and learn how best to mitigate them through the nine intended learning outcomes from the course.
The Methane Guiding Principles* (MGP) Global Outreach Programme aims to develop leadership in methane emissions reduction in oil and gas supply chains worldwide. It sets out the business case for reducing methane emissions, communicates understanding on sources, magnitude, and identification / quantification methods for methane emissions, and presents the MGP Reducing Methane Emissions Best Practices alongside real-world case studies.
