Description

In recent years, both the federal government and state governments have given increasing attention to reducing methane emissions.  During the same period, the federal and state governments have sought to reduce the number of orphan wells.  Because orphan wells can be a source of methane emissions, both the methane mitigation efforts and the orphan well initiatives can come into play in reducing methane emissions from orphan wells.  This presentation will discuss some of the work being done in this field, including work in Louisiana.
