The project \u201cCurrent State of Measurement Methods for Implementing the EU Methane Regulation in Upstream Operations, Transportation, and Storage\u201d examines which available methane measurement methods can reliably meet the requirements of EU Methane Regulation 2024\/1787 in the context of German gas infrastructure. The focus is on the systematic identification and evaluation of established and emerging measurement technologies, including portable analyzers, optical and laser-based methods, as well as drone- and satellite-based systems. In addition to the literature review, structured interviews with operators and experts are being conducted to assess the practical state of the art, existing challenges, and future needs.<\/p>\n

On this basis, the project compares the performance, uncertainties, and application limits of the methods and develops scientifically sound recommendations for selecting suitable measurement techniques. The aim is to provide an evidence-based foundation for the practical implementation and harmonization of methane measurement methods in Germany and Europe.<\/p>\n\t<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t
