Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a)
						The operator of a facility must report CO2,
						CH4, and N2O emissions from each
						industry segment specified in paragraphs (b) through (i) of this section,
						CO2, CH4, and
						N2O emissions from each flare as specified in paragraphs
						(b) through (i) of this section, and stationary and portable combustion
						emissions as applicable and as specified in paragraph (j) of this
						section.
(b) For offshore petroleum
						and natural gas production, the operator must report
						CO2, CH4, and
						N2O emissions from equipment leaks, vented emissions,
						and flare emission source types as identified in the data collection and
						emissions estimation study, (
Year 2008 Gulfwide Emission Inventory
						Study (GOADS)
(December 2010)) conducted by the Bureau of Ocean Energy
						Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) in compliance with
						30 CFR §§
													250.302 through
						304 (July 1, 2011), which is
						hereby incorporated by reference. Offshore platforms do not need to report
						portable emissions. In addition, offshore production facilities must report
						combustion emissions from supply and transportation vessels (e.g., ships and
						helicopters) used to transport personnel, equipment and products to and from
						the production facility using methods found in subpart C of 40 CFR Part
						98.
(c) For an onshore petroleum
						and natural gas production facility, the operator must report
						CO2, CH4, and
						N2O emissions from the following source types on a
						well-pad, associated with a well-pad or associated with equipment to which an
						emulsion is transferred:
(1) Metered natural
						gas pneumatic device and pump venting;
(2) Non-metered natural gas pneumatic device
						venting;
(3) Acid gas removal
						vents;
(4) Dehydrator
						vents;
(5) Well venting for liquids
						unloading;
(6) Gas well venting
						during well completions and workovers;
(7) Equipment and pipeline
						blowdowns;
(8) Dump
						valves;
(9) Well testing venting
						and flaring;
(10) Associated gas
						venting and flaring;
(11) Flare
						stack or other destruction device emissions;
(12) Centrifugal compressor
						venting;
(13) Reciprocating
						compressor venting;
(14) EOR
						injection pump blowdown;
(15) Crude
						oil, condensate and produced water CO2 and
						CH4;
(16)
						Equipment leaks from valves, connectors, open ended lines, pressure relief
						valves, pumps, flanges, and other equipment leak sources (such as instruments,
						loading arms, stuffing boxes, compressor seals, dump lever arms, and breather
						caps); and
(17) The operator must
						use the methods in section
						95153(y) and
						report under this subarticle the emissions of CO2,
						CH4, and N2O from stationary or
						portable fuel combustion equipment that cannot move on roadways under its own
						power and drive train, and that is located at an onshore petroleum and natural
						gas production facility as defined in section
						95150. Stationary or portable
						equipment includes equipment which is integral to the extraction, processing,
						and movement of oil and/or natural gas; such as well pad construction
						equipment, well drilling and completion equipment, equipment used for abandoned
						well plugging and site reclamation, workover equipment, natural gas
						dehydrators, natural gas compressors, electrical generators, steam boilers, and
						process heaters.
