MTS/Ocean Exchange 2023 Webinar Series

Detect, capture and sequester: Pathways to achieve climate goals 

Date: September 13, 2023  
Time: 11am ET/8am PT

Description

There is a continuing need for cost-effective solutions for detecting, capturing and sequestering atmospheric byproducts from energy production to take the necessary steps toward achieving climate goals. Reducing methane emissions is an urgent matter since methane is a known GHG and is thought to contribute at least 25% of human caused climate issues.

Join us for an objective discussion about detecting and addressing LNG/methane slippage. Panelists will present information about the issues, implemented solutions, insight into potential new technologies and solutions, and the workforce needed to support the industry.
