DETAILED MEASUREMENT INFORMED METHANE EMISSION INVENTORY OF THE HAYNESVILLE SHALE BASIN. GTI ENERGY ALONG WITH CHESAPEAKE ENERGY AND PACIFIC NORTHWEST NATIONAL LABORATORY (PNNL) WILL IMPLEMENT AND EVALUATE A METHODOLOGY FOR RECONCILING BOTTOM-UP (CALCULATED) ESTIMATES OF METHANE EMISSIONS WITH TOP DOWN/MEASURED ESTIMATES OF METHANE EMISSIONS IN THE HAYNESVILLE SHALE BASIN (HAYNESVILLE). THE EFFORT INCLUDES SCALING THE ESTIMATE UP TO CREATE AN INVENTORY OF TOTAL EMISSIONS IN THE HAYNESVILLE. THE PROJECT WILL ACT AS A NOVEL, LARGE-SCALE, AND INDEPENDENT FIELD VALIDATION OF THE EXTENSIVE, MULTI-MILLION-DOLLAR GTI VERITAS INITIATIVE (VERITAS) MEASUREMENT AND RECONCILIATION PROTOCOLS.
