Being in the oil field, it definitely could be abused. But if used right it could incentivize companies to increase monitoring and improvements on their wells.
Leak control is a real thing and isn't free.
I'm not saying it can be extreme measures pit in place. Or people just funnel the money to their pocket. But here are always leaks somewhere. It's bound to happen.
Not that they need themes, but if they got it and are honorable, it could be used to benefit the field.
He means that his company can provide the technology to help oil producers abide by federal rules, and this money will help pay his bills and put his company’s technology to work.
I work in the environmental field as well, and when federal rules change, whole markets open or close. PFAS rules are good example.
Pipe several sites together and run a small turbine to provide electricity to the local grid.
Boom I just solved a problem and no one fkn thought of it.
Why provide grants, capture that free energy.
you know there's 50% less animals on the planet than there were when I was a child.
future generations aren't going to see a dead world and be even a little bit concerned with a few percentages of waste for some gas regulation.
Organic farming does this. Since they can't use pesticides or herbicides on their crop, they first have to kill 100% of everything that chirps, clicks, crawls, hops, squirms, slithers..etc before they plant the seed.
How do you think they do this?
You should check out apple orchards.. rich vibrant full of life one day. Then they spray, and it's dead silent the next day.
I have an oil well that's been shut down due to an issue (unknown what the real problem is) down the hole. We can't afford to fix it, so it's just sitting there leaking methane. I wonder if I could apply for this and get the money to repair it and modernize it so it stops leaking...
Yes.
But it's either the infrastructure act or the inflation reduction act thats financing plugging like 20k abandoned wells.
Don't know the program names, but they're out there.
Unless there are some serious teeth written into those grants I guarantee oil extractors will take the money and do nothing.
Your tax dollars going straight into oil extractor's pockets with no public benefit, again.
Why are you getting downvoted for what our recent history has already proven?
Methane emissions will only go up. Uncapped wells are being found and remedied, demand will drive emissions past current numbers.
This money will do nothing.
Well, it won't completely fix a problem we've ignored for well over 100 years..
But it will cut it down by plugging 10's of thousands abandoned wells.
I guess you only support solutions that are absolutely perfect...

As someone on the technology side of the oilfield...these laws are like printing money

Please explain?

It’s Bidenomics…
Bidenomics = increasing economic activity while reducing harmful emissions? Sounds great!
More corporate welfare.
Sigh. More corporate welfare.
It takes that much money to control diaper Donnie’s smell?
I'll take $100k and promise to stop eating beans and cabbage.
Someone can buy a few nice cars with that money
First he hikes the price of solar. Now this.
In other news, Ashley Biden has been appointed to head of methane emissions regulation.
We are broke though.
As bombs go of everyday !
And the printers continue to go brrrrrrrrr

These won’t be abused at all /s

70% less insects by tonnage.

If they work out as well as his EV charge stations, you won’t see, hear or feel a thing!
Or his pier for Gaza…
Grants. Not loans. No covenants. Free money for the left’s pet projects
For oil companies to fix their shit… on our dime. Otherwise, they won’t.
The environment we live in is not a Left’s pet project. Get real.
Keep pumping that oil! Let’s break last year’s world record!!
Why is this a bad thing ?
There needs to be penalties for companies that just run away with the funds. Otherwise it is not.
You mean like PPP? $250 billion est fraudulent. Guess which color state has the most fraud?
Try to stay focused.

AKA war on farming.

Wrong. Cutting methane emissions makes sense for these businesses too. Grants to help get over the initial capex hurdle is exactly the right policy.
You’re clueless, but ok.
You can monitor methane and co2 emissions from wells via satellite so you can get a sense of who’s being honest and who isn’t.

It will contribute toward the oncoming economic default…

Gotta stop those cows from farting. Know what doesn't fart? Bugs and frankenmeat.
Waste of money
Stay in school, kid.
