FG partners firm to develop oil spill tracker

He said this will enable regulators like NOSDRA and other agencies to cooperate with oil and gas companies to respond to emissions, fix the problem, and reduce the adverse impact on the environment.

Heal explained that methane is an important gas in terms of climate change, adding that its impact on the climate is several times worse than carbon dioxide but if tackled there are better chances of reaching long-term climate goals.

“Very notable tools have been produced till date, these are the oil spill monitor and

the gas flare tracker, which we were delighted to play a part in co-developing with NOSDRA.

“And then most recently, we’ve been very happy to partner with NOSDRA to develop a prototype methane tracker for the oil and gas sector in Nigeria. This was supported by a project with funding from the government of the Netherlands.
