COP29: TotalEnergies and Oil India Join Forces to Collaborate on Methane
Emissions Detection and Measurement

 

TotalEnergies (Paris:TTE) (LSE:TTE) (NYSE:TTE) and Oil India Limited (OIL)
signed a Cooperation Agreement to carry out methane emissions detection and
measurement campaigns using TotalEnergies’ pioneer AUSEA(1) technology at
OIL sites in India.

State-owned enterprise OIL recently joined the Oil and Gas Decarbonization
Charter

(OGDC), a global industry initiative launched at COP28, co-chaired by
TotalEnergies’ CEO. The OGDC’s ambition is to work towards net-zero
operations by 2050, as well as near-zero upstream methane emissions and zero
routine flaring by 2030. Moreover, OGDC members are committed to measuring and
publicly reporting progress.

In line with the OGDC’s principle of sharing good practices, TotalEnergies
makes this technology available to other operators among the signatories, as
an effective and recognized tool to detect, measure and eventually abate
methane emissions on their own assets.

AUSEA, a one-of-a-kind technology by TotalEnergies

Mounted on a drone, the AUSEA gas analyzer, developed by TotalEnergies and its
R&D partners, consists of a dual sensor capable of detecting methane and
carbon dioxide emissions, while at the same time identifying their source.
This technology marks a step change in methane emissions detection and
measurement compared to traditional techniques. By allowing access to
hard-to-reach emission points, on all types of industrial facilities, both
offshore and onshore, AUSEA is reputed as one of the most accurate
technologies in the industry.

“We are delighted that OIL has joined the growing list of national companies
we are collaborating with by making our AUSEA technology available. This is a
clear demonstration that the Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter launched at
COP28 has gained momentum, thanks to the promotion of industrial best
practices. Today, AUSEA performs campaigns on every continent and contributes
to the OGDC signatories’ ambition to aim at near-zero upstream methane
emissions by 2030,” said Patrick Pouyanné Chairman and CEO of
TotalEnergies.

Commenting on the pact, Dr. Ranjit Rath, Chairman & Managing Director of
OIL, said, “By joining our peers in the OGDC, OIL reiterates India’s
commitment to the global community, while underscoring OIL's dedication to
reducing emissions. OIL is pleased to be collaborating with TotalEnergies, an
industry pioneer in methane emissions detection and measurements.”
