Abstract: Both the Alberta and Federal Governments have announced their policy positions on implementing a carbon tax as part of their joint action on climate change. Additionally, both governments are targeting substantial reductions in methane emissions from the oil and gas industry. These methane reductions will be achieved through regulations that will target sources of both intentional venting and fugitive equipment leaks. Methane emitted by the oil and gas industry is largely from unmetered sources that, to date, have not been rigorously managed or inventoried. Historically, sources of unmetered fuel, flared and vented gas have not gained much attention since, individually, the volumes are deemed to be small and of not much concern. While this is true on an individual component or event basis, it takes on a different perspective when one considers the cumulative impact of literally hundreds of thousands of emission points within the oil and gas industry.
