Europe’s Flagship Summit Dedicated to
Oil & Gas Methane Reduction
24-26 February, 2026 | Amsterdam, Netherlands
Rod Robinson
Principal Research Scientist National Physical Laboratory, UKRod Robinson is a leading expert in emissions measurement at the UK’s National Physical Laboratory, with over 20 years of experience in environmental monitoring and remote sensing. He has played a key role in developing and applying Differential Absorption Lidar (DIAL) for industrial emissions, including methane and CO₂. Rod is Vice Chairman of CEN TC 264 and actively contributes to European standardisation in emissions monitoring. His work focuses on improving measurement accuracy, uncertainty analysis, and the practical implementation of standards. He also chairs the UK’s BSI EH/2 committee and advises several international scientific conferences on emissions and air quality.
Main Conference Day 1: Wednesday 25th February
1:45 PM Panel: From Working Group to Industry Guide: Your Insider Preview into the Making of Methane Standards
- Hear from members of four active CEN and ISO working groups on how expert consensus is driving the development of practical, durable standards for methane reduction
- Explore how standards serve as a bridge between policy and practice, translating regulatory goals into clear, actionable methodologies for industry
- Understand how working groups are balancing technical rigour with flexibility to ensure standards remain relevant and innovation-friendly
Main Conference Day 2: Thursday 26th February
9:20 AM Presentation: Setting the Standard: A Methane Mitigation Playbook
- Learn how current CEN and ISO standardisation activities are shaping consistent methodologies for LDAR and methane emissions reporting across upstream, midstream, and mining sectors
- Understand how the EU’s standardisation request is being translated into actionable, technical standards through formal processes within relevant Technical Committees
- Explore the role of pre-normative research in developing robust, science-based standards that support OGMP 2.0 and EUMR implementation
- Gain insight into the future standards landscape and how harmonised approaches will enable operators to benchmark performance and demonstrate compliance on equal footing
