Measuring Marine Methane: Understanding the challenges of monitoring methane emissions from offshore gas production and transportation

July 29, 2024

When it comes to better understanding the impact of emissions from offshore oil and gas storage and production, there are several factors that must be accounted for.

On a hot Louisiana morning in 2021, the Diamond Gas Rose glided down a narrow channel between marshes and swamps toward one of the state’s newest liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminals.

Measuring SkyTruth’s Carbon Footprint

July 24, 2024

I have long assumed that the carbon footprint associated with SkyTruth’s work is more than justified by the positive impacts that result from it. But recently I’ve been wondering, shouldn’t we be able to say what our carbon footprint is?

I’m the Sysadmin at SkyTruth, and I'm incredibly fortunate to get paid to continuously learn new things. Now I’m learning how we can measure SkyTruth’s carbon footprint.

SkyTruth’s New Report Finds 750+ Oil Slicks in Mediterranean Sea Revealing Chronic Pollution Problem

April 16, 2024

Greece, Home of ‘Our Ocean Conference’ Which Started Yesterday, Had Highest Number of Slicks in Its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)

A new report released yesterday at the Our Ocean Conference in Greece by SkyTruth identified 757 oil slicks covering 1.9 million hectares in the Mediterranean Sea between July 2020 - January 2024. Most of these slicks were discharged from vessels in transit. The data comes from our platform, Cerulean, the first free, digital tool that uses AI and satellite imagery to track ocean oil pollution and its potential culprits.
