SUMMARY:Carbon dioxide and methane emissions in the natural gas supply chai
 n
DESCRIPTION:Carbon dioxide and methane emissions in the natural gas supply 
 chain\nThe Sustainable Gas Institute (SGI) will be launching its first whi
 te paper: “Carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane emissions in the natural gas
  supply chain.” Following an overview of the report’s key findings fro
 m the lead author\, Dr Paul Balcombe\, a panel discussion will follow to r
 eflect on the report and the issues raised.\nThe confirmed panel members a
 re:\n\nProfessor Dave Allen from University of Texas Austin\nStephen Tinda
 le of Climate Answers\nLiz Rogers\, Vice President of Environment Upstream
  at British Petroleum (BP)\nLisa Walker\, Vice President Environment and C
 limate Change from BG Group\n\nAgenda\nRegistration will being at 16.30 an
 d the event is expected to start at 17.00. The event will be followed by a
  drinks reception. Seating is on a first come first serve basis and subjec
 t to capacity.\n\nCoffee and registrations (from 16:30 in 3.01D and 3.01E 
 on the third floor of the Royal School of Mines)\nWelcome and introduction
 s by Professor Nigel Brandon\nSummary and highlights from Dr Paul Balcombe
 \nPanel discussion\nQ&A\nDrinks reception\n\n\nAbout the paper\nUnderstand
 ing the range of emissions associated with the natural gas supply chain is
  an important question when assessing the role natural gas could have in l
 ower carbon energy systems. Although naturally lower in carbon than other 
 fossil fuels the global warming potential of methane is far greater than C
 O2 and the unintended loss of methane during exploration\, production and 
 distribution can have a detrimental effect on these lower carbon credentia
 ls. This paper presents a comprehensive review of current estimates of CO2
  and methane emissions in the natural gas supply chain. The paper document
 s the current state of knowledge of these emissions\, including the magnit
 ude and range of estimates and the factors that determine this range. Comp
 iling a globally representative data set and determining the fullest exten
 t to which supply chain emissions can be reduced are identified as opportu
 nities for further research to aid better understanding of the potential r
 ole of natural gas in a low carbon energy system.
