Description

This quantification protocol is written for the oil and gas industry where methane that is normally vented is capture and either conserved or combusted to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The protocol provides a methodology to quantify the greenhouse gas emission reductions from capturing vented methane. Since methane has a much higher global warming potential than carbon dioxide this protocol has the potential to enable project developers to achieve significant reductions and generate emission offsets.

Emergency/process upset flaring management : modelling guidance

Description

This guidance is intended for flare operations that require an Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act approval, or that operate under a code of practice for emissions to the atmosphere.... More ≫

Description

This guidance is intended for flare operations that require an Environmental Protection and Enhancement Act approval, or that operate under a code of practice for emissions to the atmosphere. Alberta Environment has developed the guidance to ensure consistency in the use of dispersion models for regulatory applications in Alberta. The practices recommended within this guideline are a means to ensure that these objectives are met. The guideline outlines Alberta Environment's dispersion modelling requirements and methods.
