Regulations Crack-Down on Fugitive Methane Emissions The Solution to Combating GHG Impact from Pneumatic Devices By: Ru Schaefferkoetter – Guest Columnist The Problem with Methane Emissions According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in 2019, pneumatic devices and pumps accounted for more than half of methane emissions reported by U.S. oil and gas operation to EPA.
