another method may be used that is consistent with the principles in section 1.13.

Subdivision 3.3.5.1—Fugitive emissions from crude oil refining and from storage tanks for crude oil

3.64  Method 1—crude oil refining and storage tanks for crude oil
  Method 1 is:

where:
Eij is the fugitive emissions of gas type (j), being methane or carbon dioxide, from fuel type (i) being crude oil refined or stored in tanks during the year measured in CO2‑e tonnes.
∑i is the sum of emissions of gas type (j), being methane or carbon dioxide, released during refining and from storage tanks during the year.
Qi is the quantity of crude oil (i) refined or stored in tanks during the year measured in tonnes.
EFij is the emission factor for gas type (j), being methane or carbon dioxide, being 9.47 × 10‑4 tonnes CO2‑e per tonne of crude oil refined and 1.73 × 10‑4 tonnes CO2‑e per tonne of crude oil stored in tanks.

3.65  Method 2—crude oil refining and storage tanks for crude oil
 (1) Method 2 is:

where:
Eij is the fugitive emissions of gas type (j), being methane, from the crude oil refining and from storage tanks during the year measured in CO2‑e tonnes.
Σk is the total emissions of gas type (j), being methane, measured in tonnes of CO2‑e estimated by summing up the emissions released from each equipment types (k) listed in sections 5 and 6.1.2 of the API Compendium as determined under subsection (2), if the equipment is used in the crude oil refining and in the storage tanks.
Qik is the total of the quantities of crude oil (i) measured in tonnes that pass through each equipment type (k) listed in sections 5 and 6.1.2 of the API Compendium, if the equipment is used in the crude oil refining and in the storage tanks.
EFijk is the emission factor for gas type (j), being methane, measured in tonnes of CO2‑e per tonne of crude oil that passes through each equipment type (k) listed in sections 5 and 6.1.2 of the API Compendium, if the equipment is used in the crude oil refining and in the storage tanks.
 (2) For EFijk, the emission factors for gas type (j), being methane, as the crude oil passes through an equipment type (k) are:
 (a) as listed in sections 5 and 6.1.2 of the API Compendium, for the equipment type; or
 (b) if the manufacturer of the equipment supplies equipment‑specific emission factors for the equipment type—those factors.

       3.66  Method 3—crude oil refining and storage tanks for crude oil

 (1) Method 3 is:
Eij = ∑k (Qik × EFijk)
where:
Eij is the fugitive emissions of gas type (j), being methane, from
