据世界石油2月23日消息称，雪佛龙公司正试图在得克萨斯州和科罗拉多州的五个油井上证明其能够降低甲烷排放，这是该行业推动“负责任地获取”天然气的一部分。
这家能源巨头正在为这些油井寻求环境评估公司Project Canary的独立认证，该公司将对这些油井的排放和其他环境方面的信息进行审查和分析。这些油井同时生产石油和伴生天然气。雪佛龙周三在一份声明中表示，该公司还将在一些地点部署Project Canary的监测设备。
包括埃克森美孚公司、殷拓公司和西南能源公司在内的能源公司已经纷纷证明，它们能够在生产天然气时降低甲烷的排放。甲烷是一种重要的温室气体排放源。

Chevron targets 5 U.S. well sites in project to curb emissions
Chevron Corp. is looking to show it can lower methane emissions at five oil well sites in Texas and Colorado as part of an industry push into “responsibly sourced” gas.
The energy giant is seeking independent certification at the sites from environmental assessment firm Project Canary, which will review and analyze information on emissions and other environmental aspects at the wells, which produce both oil and associated gas. Chevron will also deploy Project Canary’s monitoring devices at some locations, the company said Wednesday in a statement.
Energy companies including Exxon Mobil Corp., EQT Corp. and Southwestern Energy Co. have rushed to demonstrate they can produce gas with low resulting emissions of methane, a potent greenhouse gas contributor.
