Are you in charge of environmental compliance? Then you are figuring out how to comply with the first-ever EU Regulation on methane emissions reduction in the energy sector. The Regulation has now officially launched and has entered into force on August 4, 2024.

The regulation introduces new requirements for the oil, gas, and coal sectors to measure, report, and verify methane emissions, as well as putting in place mitigation measures to avoid such emissions. This includes detecting and repairing methane leaks and limiting venting and flaring. It also puts forward global monitoring tools to ensure transparency on methane emissions from imports of oil, gas, and coal into the EU.

Let's make a plan and perform your methane emission measurements now. We help you ensure compliance with the new EU Methane Regulation while respecting deadlines and bearing costs in mind. Our experts are ready to support you.

Deadlines to hit in 2025

Create gap analysis and preparation

To comply, you need to understand your current methane emissions situation. We create a gap analysis, help you define the scope, create a complete inventory from site-level to source-level.

5 May

Submit your LDAR program to your authorities

You need to submit your LDAR program to your authorities before 5 May 2025. This LDAR program should include a description of how you (or a third party) will conduct LDAR surveys according to which methodologies and with your specific timelines.

5 August

Yearly LDAR and MRV reporting

By 5 August 2025, you must have completed your Type 2 LDAR Program for all your assets and submit a yearly LDAR report. This is a significant task so we highly recommend starting ASAP to meet this deadline. Moreover, all source-level methane emissions must be quantified and must be reported in a yearly MRV report.
