TotalEnergies: reducing its methane emissions

(CercleFinance.com) - TotalEnergies announces a new stage in the monitoring and reduction of its methane emissions, with the deployment of continuous, real-time detection equipment at all its operated Upstream sites.


The Company will achieve its target of a 50% reduction in emissions by 2024, one year ahead of its 2020 target. TotalEnergies is therefore well on the way to achieving its target of an 80% reduction by 2030.

TotalEnergies is taking another step forward by installing continuous detection equipment on all its operated Upstream assets, which will enable real-time identification of methane emissions and immediate implementation of corrective measures to put an end to them.

' Cutting methane emissions is a short-term priority to help combat climate change. Continuous, real-time detection will enable our operators to act even more decisively to reduce our methane emissions and repair leaks to achieve our ambition of near-zero methane emissions' said Patrick Pouyanné, Chairman and CEO of TotalEnergies.
