Flaring intensity & combustion emissions
Flare volume per barrel, the CO₂ from combustion and the methane that slips through unburned — with the combustion efficiency as the dial that matters.
HSE & emissions
Vented methane to CO₂ equivalent
A vented or fugitive gas volume converted to tonnes of methane and tonnes of CO₂ equivalent on both the 20- and 100-year horizons, with an OGMP 2.0 reporting level attached.

How it is calculated
- Methane mass = volume × methane mole fraction × 0.6785 kg/Sm³ at 15 °C and 101.325 kPa.
- CO₂ equivalent uses IPCC AR6 GWPs including climate–carbon feedback: 82.5 over 20 years and 29.8 over 100.
- Any CO₂ already in the stream is counted at a GWP of 1 and added.
- Both horizons are always computed, because a CO₂e figure without its horizon is not a figure.
Standards it speaks
Where this stops being true
The arithmetic is trivial and the input is not. Vented volume is the hard number: generic emission factors, which is what most Level 3 reporting rests on, routinely under-count real emissions by a factor of two or more, because a site total is usually dominated by a small number of large intermittent sources that no factor captures. Nothing here measures anything — it converts a volume you supply, and the quality of the answer is entirely the quality of that volume.
