Multisatellite Imaging of a Gas Well Blowout Enables Quantification of Total Methane Emissions

Multisatellite Imaging of a Gas Well Blowout Enables Quantification of Total Methane Emissions

Abstract Incidents involving loss of control of oil/gas wells can result in large but variable emissions whose impact on the global methane budget is currently unknown. On November 1, 2019, a gas well blowout was reported in the Eagle Ford Shale. By combining satellite observations at different spat...
