Angola: Sonangol and TotalEnergies cooperate to reduce methane and CO2 emissions

State-owned oil company Sonangol and Total Energies signed a cooperation agreement in Luanda to launch a campaign to identify, quantify and reduce methane and carbon dioxide emissions from their operations.
Selon Sonangol, l’opération sera réalisée à travers un drone, soutenant la décarbonation de l’industrie pétrolière angolaise et contribuant à une énergie plus propre dans le pays.
Selon la compagnie pétrolière angolaise, la campagne pilote débutera en novembre, dans le bloc 3/05, et impliquera l’utilisation de la technologie « AUSEA » (Airborne Ultra-light Spectrometer for Environmental Applications) développée par Total Energies et la Recherche Scientifique Nationale française.
According to the website, the technology enables highly accurate and qualified detection of methane and carbon dioxide emissions from oil installations.
La technologie fournie par Total Energies garantira un contrôle plus précis des émissions de méthane et de dioxyde de carbone, en tenant compte de l’objectif de réduction des émissions de l’Angola.
La signature de l’accord de coopération démontre l’engagement des deux sociétés à garantir un environnement sain pour les générations futures, a déclaré la compagnie pétrolière.
Founded in 1976, Sonangol EP is a company that explores for liquid and gaseous hydrocarbons in Angola's subsoil and continental shelf.
With around 7,000 employees, the Angolan oil company's activities, carried out independently or in association with national and foreign companies, cover the exploration, research, development, production, storage, marketing, transport and refining of hydrocarbons and their by-products.
