道达尔与Qenergy致力于减少巴尼特油田甲烷排放

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据世界石油网站10月11日报道 作为持续进步和可持续发展努力的一部分，道达尔（TotalEnergies）宣布部署QEnergy开发的一项创新技术，以显著减少其在美国巴尼特油田作业的甲烷排放。

　　QEnergy提出的解决方案采用了一种技术，允许将甲烷动力仪表转换为压缩空气动力仪表，从而消除了过程中甲烷向大气的释放。

　　2021年3月，在巴尼特现场的一个成功试点项目中，Qenergy的技术被证明是可靠的，安装简单，且易于操作，可以消除高达98%与使用天然气的仪器相关的甲烷排放。

　　经过成功的附加测试后，TotalEnergies决定在2021年和2022年在巴尼特油田部署100个装置，安装这项新技术。到2024年底，在整个油田部署300套额外装置将使气动装置的甲烷排放量每年减少约7000吨。

　　从现在起，巴尼特油田和整个公司的新开发项目将在不使用天然气仪器的情况下进行设计。

　　TotalEnergies可持续发展与气候高级副总裁Carole Le Gall表示：“为了充分发挥其在能源转型中的作用，尤其是作为煤炭的替代品，综合天然气链必须尽可能限制其甲烷排放。我们已经成功地证明了QEnergy技术在巴尼特油田的有效性。通过立即在美国陆上运营中部署该技术，我们积极证明我们致力于在2020-2025年期间将自身甲烷排放量减少20%的，目标。”

　　TotalEnergies and Qnergy work to reduce methane emissions on the Barnett field

　　PARIS – As part of its effort for continuous progress and sustainable development, TotalEnergies announces deployment of an innovative technology developed by Qnergy, to significantly reduce methane emissions related to its operations on the Barnett gas field in the United States.

　　The solution proposed by Qnergy uses a technology allowing to convert methane powered instrumentation to compressed air powered instrumentation, thus eliminating the release of methane to the atmosphere during the process.

　　During a successful pilot project at the Barnett site in March 2021, Qnergy’s technology proved to be reliable, simple to install and easy to operate, allowing to eliminate up to 98% of the methane venting emissions related to instruments using natural gas.

　　Following successful additional tests, TotalEnergies has decided to install this new technology by deploying 100 units on the Barnett field in 2021 and 2022. The deployment of 300 additional units throughout the field will reduce methane venting emissions from pneumatic devices by approximately 7,000 tons a year by end 2024.

　　From now on, new developments on the Barnett field and across the Company will be designed without instruments using natural gas.

　　“To fully play its role in the energy transition, notably as a substitute for coal, the integrated natural gas chain must limit its methane emissions as much as possible. We have successfully demonstrated the effectiveness of Qnergy’s technology on the Barnett field. By immediately deploying this technology on our US onshore operations, we are actively demonstrating our commitment to reducing our own methane emissions by 20% between 2020 and 2025,” said Carole Le Gall, Senior Vice President Sustainability & Climate at TotalEnergies.
