Fugitive emissions from energy production makes up 5.8% of global emissions - more than aviation (1.9%) and shipping (1.7%) combined! The majority of fugitive emissions are from the oil and gas sector, who vent, leak and flare immense amounts of methane.

In this video we talk with Mark Davis and John-Henry Charles from Capterio, about their free tool FlareIntel that uses satellites to monitor flaring activity.
