Ecospold 2 exchange, ID = 10da3c92-bfbe-455c-8029-dfd4e4acedd4; Amount of flared gas calculated according to national statistics and standard parameters.
Bolivian Flaring and Losses amount (7.30E+07 m³) for the year of 2018 is reported in the Monthly Bulletin of the Natural Gas Industry (MME, 2018). Brazilian data is used to calculate the share between flaring and venting.
For Brazil, the share of vented natural gas is estimated using the amount of fugitive methane emitted during exploration and production activities in 2012 (112,261,860 kg - MCTI, 2015). Considering that all methane fugitive emissions are due to venting, the final amount of vented natural gas in 2012 is calculated with the natural gas composition (0.73%vol of methane; 0.71 kg methane/m³; compiled from anp.gov.br/dados-estatisticos). Thereby, the calculated amount of vented natural gas in 2012 is 2.15E+8 m³, which corresponds to 15% of the combined Flaring and Losses statistics for 2012. This calculated share was used to split the amount flared and vented natural gas in Bolivian onshore production for 2018, respectively 6.21E+7 m³ and 1.09E+7 m³.
