PermCap-GHG’s Methane abatement process

PermCap employs a comprehensive approach to ensure the integrity and accuracy of the carbon credits derived from our work. We perform all processes in strict accordance with the methodology established for plugging orphaned oil and gas wells by the American Carbon Registry – ACR OOG V1.0 . All aspects of our projects are subjected to comprehensive audit and validation by a certified independent 3rd party verification body – the resulting carbon offsets are high-impact, accurate and durable and represent actual, quantified reductions in the uncontrolled release of fugitive methane.

Locating Orphaned Wells

The first step is to locate abandoned wells. This can be a challenging task, as many orphaned wells are not properly documented. Our team uses a variety of methods to locate these wells, including aerial drone surveys, ground surveys, and municipal partnerships.

Assessing the Leak

Assess an orphaned well’s condition involves evaluating the well's integrity and determining the extent of any leaks. PermCap uses a variety of tools and techniques to assess the condition of orphaned wells, including thermal imaging cameras, and highly sensitive methane detecting equipment.

Sealing the Well

This involves permanently plugging the wellbore and preventing any further methane emissions. All plugging work is done in a manner that is consistent with the prevailing state and federal regulations.
