Published purpose

Recently PTAC released some research which was done to determine how much methane venting comes from tanks in the oil and gas industry. The outcome from the research was approximately 4% of all methane venting comes from tanks. The thought is that based on current available technologies the cost of recovering or capturing this gas is about $46 per T CO2e. We feel we can get that cost down by using the Crossfire platform which would make the argument for capturing the gas more compelling to the end user. There may be other areas where this modified technology could be applied such as the packing and crankcase venting from compressors (6% of total methane venting).
