Collaborative Drill Rig 1-Hour NO2 Impacts Study by Tom Moore: Summary and Objectives

Read about the collaborative study led by Tom Moore in April 2014 to analyze 1-hour NO2 impacts from drill rigs. The study involved monitoring NO2 concentrations, measuring drill rig emissions, and modeling data for better predictions. Objectives included gathering data to inform oil and gas production, developing accurate methodologies, and convening key stakeholders for collaboration.

Presentation Transcript

  1. COLLABORATIVE DRILL RIG 1-HOUR NO2 IMPACTS STUDYTom Moore - WRAP/WESTAR • April 2014 status • Study between BLM, EPA, States, other FLMs and the Oil and Gas Industry to better predict 1-hour NO2 impacts from drill rigs through a field study and data analysis: • Monitoring • NO2 concentrations at multiple locations near operating drill rigs • Meteorological conditions (i.e. – met stations) • Measuring • Drill rig emissions (i.e. – stack testing) • Modeling • Model using data from monitoring and measurements

  2. STUDY OBJECTIVES & NEXT STEPS • Data Gathering • Better emissions and impact data to inform O&G production NEPA & other air quality analyses • Oil & Gas Drill Rig Impact data • Monitored and modeled impacts • 1-hour NO2 Modeling • Develop more accurate methodology for drill rig emission impacts • Workplan development • Convene EPA, FLMs, industry, states to discuss concept and collaboration—March-April 2014 • Field study design development—March -May 2014 • Field data collection—May-September 2014 • Alaska Field Study – starts May • Denver-Julesburg Basin – align with FRAPPÉ Study period • Other locations – Greater Green River Basin, possible Great Plains region as well • Data analysis, model evaluation, reporting—September 2014-February 2015
