Routine flaring remains one of the largest sources of methane emissions across the global oil and gas sector, yet progress on reducing flaring volumes has remained stubbornly slow. As regulatory pressure increases and buyers place greater emphasis on emissions performance, operators are facing growing expectations to turn commitments into measurable action.

In this interview, Bart Wauterickx, Managing Director at XP Upgreen, shares his perspective on why routine flaring continues to be such a persistent challenge, despite the technologies already being available to address it. He explores the economic and regulatory barriers holding back progress, the role of evolving market expectations, and why methane reduction should be viewed not simply as a compliance exercise, but as a driver of operational performance and long-term competitiveness.

In this interview, you'll learn:

• Why routine flaring remains one of the largest contributors to methane emissions globally.
• The key economic and regulatory barriers preventing wider deployment of flaring reduction solutions.
• How evolving EU regulations and market expectations are influencing operator behaviour.
