Aethon Energy Management (Aethon), the largest private natural gas producer in the Haynesville Shale, collaborates with Cheniere Energy to implement quantification, monitoring, reporting and verification (QMRV) of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions performance. 

The collaboration will support Aethon’s broader carbon emissions reduction strategy by monitoring a sample of Aethon’s newest production sites in the Haynesville, helping to methodically test the feasibility and scale for establishing low upstream emissions (LUE) standards. 

“We’re proud to join Cheniere in this collaboration to drive greater transparency and reporting of carbon emissions that will encourage more sustainable approaches to natural gas production and usage,” said Gordon Huddleston, Co-President and Partner, Aethon. 

“Aethon remains committed to leveraging innovative solutions that deliver tangible results and drive our company-wide efforts to reduce carbon emissions,” added Huddleston. 

The QMRV collaboration with Cheniere complements Aethon’s existing carbon emissions reduction programs throughout the lifecycle of the well, including innovative approaches: Detecting and repairing methane leaks; Reducing GHG emissions through natural gas-fired turbine and electric fracturing fleets; Pursuing carbon sequestration injection well permitting; Designing zero emission wellsites; Phasing out gas pneumatic chemical pumps; and Optimizing and consolidating compressors.
