The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) has acquired a digital monitoring platform called the Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Emission Tracker (NOGIET) to help reduce methane emissions in the oil and gas sector. The platform, which integrates satellite-based methane detection with facility-level emissions measurements, is expected to improve regulatory oversight and enforcement.
The NUPRC aims to cut methane emissions by 60 per cent by 2035, as part of its commitment to net-zero emissions by 2060. The platform, developed in partnership with the Stakeholder Democracy Network and supported by the Global Methane Hub, will enable regulators to identify emission hotspots, detect discrepancies in reported data, and prioritize inspections.
