With methane management under increasing global scrutiny, this edition of our research digest highlights emerging strategies and evaluation challenges across the natural gas value chain. We explore regional recommendations for methane mitigation in East Asian LNG markets, long-term performance testing of continuous monitoring systems, and the limitations of top-down measurement-informed inventories. Also featured are new insights into drone-based uncertainty analysis, temporal variability in basin-wide emissions, and aircraft-based quantification studies from Romania and West Africa.
