This ERM analysis benchmarks the total reported 2024 methane, carbon dioxide, and nitrous oxide emissions — as well as relative emissions intensity — of nearly 350 upstream oil and natural gas companies.

The report highlights wide variation in the emissions intensity (the amount of methane or greenhouse gas emissions per unit of throughput) between upstream companies, even those with operations of a similar size, and provides comparisons both within the same basin and nationwide. These differences reflect the nature of different hydrocarbon basins, as well as companies’ equipment and operational practices.
