| Annotation: |
This paper explains a new quantitative methodology for calculating the expected emissions from a project site. It explains how the use of this methodology can help operators to adjust aspects of the operation which they have control of (choice of drilling fluids, end disposal options, etc.) in order to minimize project emissions. |
