Technology Transfer Workshops
These workshops provide a forum for oil and natural gas companies to receive and share detailed information about current cost-effective technologies and practices to reduce methane emissions in their specific sector. Workshops are free-of-charge and all are welcome.
- Natural Gas STAR Producers and Processors Technology Workshop, Billings, Montana, August 31, 2009 — Sponsored by the U.S. EPA and the Montana Petroleum Association
The Natural Gas STAR Program will offer a Producers and Processors Technology Transfer Workshops in Billings, Montana on August 31, 2009. This one-day workshop will be held in conjunction with the Montana Petroleum Association's Annual Meeting and will focus on reducing methane emissions from natural gas production, gathering, and processing operations. Participants will engage in a peer-based exchange of technical and economic information on practices currently in use today. Presentations will include detailed information that participants can use to conduct feasibility assessments of these practices at their operations.
