In thepast three years, DolphinEnergy
has also increased its focuson the
management of fugitiveemissions, or
unintentional releasesofmethaneor
natural gas fromoperations. Fugitive
emissions canarise from leakages in
pipework connections and storage tanks.
This is a concernbecausemethane
has amoredetrimental impact on the
environmentwhen it is leakeddirectly into
theatmosphere rather thancombusted.
DolphinEnergy’sUpstreamDivision
has implemented aVolatileOrganic
Compounds (VOC) FugitiveEmissions
Monitoring (FEM) programonce
a year since 2011 tomonitor and
repair potential leakage sources from
equipment at its onshoreprocessing
plant inRas Laffan.
DolphinEnergy follows EUguidelines
to account for and report GHG
emissions. DolphinEnergy is alsoan
active and leadingmember of the
Qatar PetroleumGHGAccounting
andReportingProgram.
Carbon capture and storage technology
has alsobeen identified as a long-term
tool for achieving large-scale reductions
inGHG emissions. In 2013, Dolphin
Energy completed its feasibility study
on carbon capture and sequestration.
