Investor Presentation
Reducing Methane Emissions for >25 Years
Natural gas is ~95% methane so we are economically incentivized to minimize methane emissions
monitor
& repair
manage
blow
downs
Primary reduction strategies
Conduct annual methane leak surveys and perform
maintenance & repairs as needed
Monitor performance of compressor components and
replace as needed
Due to occasional repairs or testing, natural gas must be
evacuated from the pipeline (blowdown)
Pumping down the pipeline first reduces natural gas
vented during the blowdown

Use sleeves and composite wraps which allow for
external repair, avoiding blowdowns
