Ecopetrol joins UN clean air alliance
Colombia's Ecopetrol has joined a United Nations-led clean air coalition that aims to reduce methane emissions caused by the oil and gas industry, the state-run company said on Thursday.
Other members of the climate and clean air alliance include BP, Engie E&P, Eni, Equinor, Pemex, PTT, Repsol, Shell and Total, the Bogotá-based firm said in a statement.
"The objective of this initiative is to facilitate collaboration to manage and reduce methane emissions through the evaluation of [pollution] sources and the implementation of profitable technologies and practices to reduce emissions," Ecopetrol said.
It added that the move is part of the company's commitment to the 2015 Paris climate change agreement.
In other Colombia news, Interoil reported December oil and gas production of 1,458boe/d, down from 1,689boe/d in November.
