Disponible en CD en formato PDF Transcripción del abstract original del autor: GHG management presents a challenge to the natural gas industry worldwide due to associated processing and transportation emissions and the product which they sell being a potent GHG as well as a fuel commodity. The confluence of pressure to inventory and manage GHG emissions arising from governmental international commitments and higher emissions due to an expanding and more distant market creates the need for robust and consistent GHG management systems that are able to clearly monitor and report emissions in a verifiable manner and offer mitigation solutions through identification of techniques to reduce absolute emission levels and to offset emissions through the potential for market based mechanisms. The papers" objective was to answer the general management question of: "How do natural gas companies in Canada and other countries facing GHG emissions constraints, manage the liability posed by potential climate change related policy on companies operations and are these systems comparable?" Three underlying research questions were framed to accomplish this, these being; Question 1) Outlined GHG calculation, monitoring and verification practices; Question 2) Outlined GHG management practices; Question 3) Drew a qualitative comparison between Canadian and non-Canadian companies systems. Present practice and a qualitative comparison points to the management systems, as described by respondents, being broadly comparable. The paper concludes with a call for a broader statistically valid study to confirm the qualitative findings.
