The data captured by the satellites will be processed by the tech giant’s artificial intelligence tools and used to generate a methane map aimed at identifying methane leaks on oil and gas infrastructure around the world. Tech giant Google is backing a satellite project due to launch in March which will collect data about methane levels around the world, the new satellite will orbit 300 miles about the Earth, 15 times per day. There is no international rule on controlling methane emissions. A lot of methane is produced by farming and waste disposal, but the Google project will focus on methane emissions at oil and gas plants. Do you think there is need to have an internal rule for controlling methane emissions ?
