Why Methane Mitigation Europe?

The landmark EU 2024/1787 regulation has set the clock ticking. Operators have a clear timeline to implement new processes, scale resources, and adopt innovative technologies to stay compliant. With the first key deadline set for May 2025, there has never been a more critical time to navigate these challenges with industry peers.

In February 2025, we held the first European multi-stakeholder gathering after the regulatory announcement. This presented a unique opportunity for members of Europe's oil and gas industry to come face-to-face with their peers and openly discuss challenges and successes, leaving attendees feeling re-energised and ready to tackle the approaching deadlines head on.

What happened at Methane Mitigation Summit in 2025?

Collaboration and innovation sat at the heart of our event. From hands-on workshops, peer-led roundtables, and inspiring panels to 10+ real-world operator case studies and dedicated networking opportunities, attendees were hard-pressed to find a better space for breakthrough ideas, actionable solutions, and industry impact.

Grounded in operator experience, the event convened 300+ cross-industry leaders dedicated to developing cutting-edge standards, practices, and technologies to ensure emissions reduction in oil and gas.

Key Takeaways from 2025:
Regulatory Uncertainty Remains a Challenge

With key compliance deadlines looming, the absence of confirmed Competent Authorities in many states poses a significant challenge for operators still lacking clear guidance. Importers also face major unknowns, and the outcome of EU-US MRV equivalency discussions will be crucial in determining future compliance frameworks.

Standardization is Key to Ensuring a Coherent Approach to Emissions Detection, Quantification, and Reporting 

A standardized framework will create a common lexicon and establish clear performance requirements for both technologies and methodologies. Organizations such as CEN and ISO will have an integral role in shaping these efforts over the coming months to underpin regulatory requirements.

Data Quality & Granularity Will Guide Targeted and Meaningful Reduction

Europe is moving away from reliance on Emission Factors and toward continuous measurement and reconciliation-based approaches. While reconciliation remains a time-intensive process, it provides a valuable opportunity to identify unexpected emission sources, address measurement discrepancies, and build confidence in emissions inventories and the effectiveness of associated reduction strategies.

Methane Reduction is Now an Operational and Business Imperative

A low-emission asset is a better-performing asset. As operators begin to refine their use of best-practice measurement techniques, the focus is shifting further toward the development of high-impact and cost-effective abatement strategies, ensuring both compliance and improved asset performance.

Collaboration Continues to Be a Catalyst for Progress 

With so many important projects underway, knowledge exchange and capacity-building remain crucial. Initiatives and frameworks from the likes of UNEP, OGDC, MGP, and IOGP provide valuable structures for industry-wide collaboration. There is no single "silver bullet" approach, but it is clear that the more we combine learnings, the greater the impact we can achieve.
