Stories from the Field: How Frontline Engineering Teams are Cutting Emissions while Improving Operational Performance

Stories from the Field: How Frontline Engineering Teams are Cutting Emissions while Improving Operational Performance

As emissions performance expectations become increasingly stringent, frontline engineering teams are being tasked with embedding methane management into day-to-day workflows, not as a standalone environmental obligation, but as a practical driver of uptime, safety, asset reliability, and cost efficiency. Leading teams are demonstrating how this integration helps eliminate avoidable events and strengthen operational performance.

To understand how this is being done in practice, we spoke with Martina Sittler (Targa Resources) and Joe Leonard (Devon Energy). They share field‑level insight into how their teams are integrating methane management into everyday workflows, aligning more closely with sustainability teams, and using emissions data to strengthen both environmental outcomes and operational KPIs.

In this exclusive guide, they break down:

  • How methane management is being integrated alongside reliability, safety, and cost‑efficiency priorities.
  • Lessons from deploying detection, monitoring, and prevention technologies in live operating environments.
  • How workforce engagement and field validation help translate sustainability goals into operational results.
  • Why methane performance is increasingly seen as a signal of operational discipline and commercial resilience.

With tightening expectations and rising scrutiny, this shift is becoming increasingly important.

Navigating the Methane Reporting Vacuum: How Operators can Maintain Credibility and Transparency in a Post-GHGRP World

Navigating the Methane Reporting Vacuum: How Operators can Maintain Credibility and Transparency in a Post-GHGRP World

With the EPA’s proposed rollback of GHGRP creating a “reporting vacuum,” operators are under growing pressure to maintain credibility, consistency, and comparability across methane reporting frameworks at a time when global import standards are tightening. In this new landscape, reporting accuracy isn’t just a compliance expectation; it’s becoming a core component of market access, investor confidence, and commercial resilience.

To understand how operators are navigating this shift, we spoke with industry leaders Josh Carlisle (BKV Corporation) and Ethan Boor (Camino Natural Resources). They reveal how their teams are safeguarding data quality, managing competing frameworks, and preserving transparency as the U.S. moves into a post‑GHGRP environment.

In this exclusive guide, they break down:

  • How the absence of a unified U.S. framework is reshaping credibility and comparability.
  • Practical steps operators are taking to maintain high‑quality, defensible data.
  • The risks of fragmented standards, and where innovation may fill the gap.
  • How international rules like OGMP 2.0 and the EU import standard are influencing U.S. reporting decisions.
  • What a future “ideal” methane reporting ecosystem could look like.

Securing Budget for Methane Technology in 2026: How your Peers are Repositioning Methane Technology Investments as OPEX and Market Access Tools

Securing Budget for Methane Technology in 2026: How your Peers are Repositioning Methane Technology Investments as OPEX and Market Access Tools

As U.S. federal regulatory uncertainty and tightening global market expectations converge, operators are under growing pressure to make smarter, faster, and more defensible decisions about methane technology investment. 2026 is bringing new scrutiny from international import rules and shifting domestic requirements, along with the EPA pushing U.S. operators to increase production to ensure continued energy security globally. As a result, securing budget is no longer just about compliance; it’s about unlocking operational performance enhancement, market access, and long‑term business value.

To understand how operators are navigating this challenge, we spoke with two industry leaders, Brian Shpakoff, Environmental Manager (Crescent Energy) and Paul Espenan, Senior Vice President – EHS&R (Diversified Energy), who are at the forefront of reframing methane technology as an operational asset rather than a cost burden.

In this exclusive guide, they break down the real‑world strategies, data, and internal messaging that are helping teams unlock budget and integrate methane management into core operational workflows.

  • How operators are reframing methane technology from compliance cost to OPEX optimization
  • Practical methods for quantifying ROI and communicating value internally
  • How close collaboration with technology providers can help operators build more credible, data-backed internal proposals

Operator Insights on Securing Budget for Methane Technology in 2026: How Industry Leaders are Repositioning Methane Technology Investments as OPEX and Market Access Tools

Operator Insights on Securing Budget for Methane Technology in 2026: How Industry Leaders are Repositioning Methane Technology Investments as OPEX and Market Access Tools

With the U.S. regulatory landscape fluctuating and global market access pressures rising, operators are rethinking how they evaluate methane technology investments. Ongoing shifts to the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP) and renewed debate around the repeal of the EPA’s 2009 GHG Endangerment Finding have added complexity to domestic compliance signals. At the same time, mounting export requirements in Europe and Asia are raising the bar for methane data that is credible, certifiable, and market-ready.

Securing budget in 2026 is no longer just about meeting regulatory obligations. It’s about protecting uptime, reducing labor intensity, keeping more product in the pipeline, and strengthening access to premium markets. Methane management is being reframed from a compliance cost to an operational performance lever.

To understand how operators are navigating this shift, we spoke with two industry leaders who are actively shaping internal investment strategy and vendor collaboration models, Brian Shpakoff, Environmental Manager (Crescent Energy) and Paul Espenan, Senior Vice President – EHS&R (Diversified Energy). They share how they evaluate methane technology partners, what earns internal buy-in, and why early collaboration with providers is becoming a competitive advantage.

In this exclusive guide, you’ll discover:

  • How operators are reframing methane technology as an operational performance enhancer
  • What kind of data, case studies, and ROI metrics accelerate internal approval
  • Why early-stage collaboration with technology providers leads to better outcomes
  • How global market access pressures are reshaping methane data expectations
  • Real-world examples of leak reduction, LDAR improvements, and product recovery driving long-term investment

Mobilizing to Meet Global Standards on Methane Emissions at Petrobras

Mobilizing to Meet Global Standards on Methane Emissions at Petrobras

When Brazilian oil giant Petrobras signed an agreement with the UN’s Oil and Gas Methane Partnership 2.0 (OGMP) earlier this year, it cemented its commitment to a lower emission future.

OGMP 2.0 is a global initiative that focuses on the measurement and reporting of methane emissions in oil and gas operations in order to reduce them. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas and oil and gas operations account for approximately one third of human-caused methane emissions.

In its strategic plan, Petrobras says that it aims to neutralize emissions by 2050 and is investing US $4.4 billion in decarbonization projects and technology.

In this interview, Rodrigo Barbosa, Upstream Partnership Coordinator, and Roberto Gennaro, Planning Manager, Petrobras, talk about the national oil giant’s methane mitigation efforts, mobilizing support to reach OGMP’s gold standard, the challenges for the year ahead, and the lessons they’ve learned along the way.
