Oil and gas producers could reduce emissions at low cost or even at a profit by staunching leaks, says thinktank
Sharp cuts in methane from leaking gas drilling platforms and production sites could play a major role in the greenhouse gas emissions reductions necessary to fulfil the Paris climate agreement, and should be a key aim for the Cop26 UN climate talks, new research suggests.
