Operators must conform to the data reporting
requirements in section
95157 in addition to the data
reporting requirements specified below. Sales records or sales records with an
inventory adjustment are allowable methods to quantify the covered product data
required by paragraphs (a)(7)-(10), (b), (c) and (d) of this section, for
products that are sold or produced during the data year, if the measurement
system meets the criteria in section
95103(k). Any
changes in the covered product data reporting method must conform to the
requirements in section
95103(m).
Reporting entities must exclude inaccurate product data pursuant to section
95103 (l).
(a) In addition to the data required by
section
95157, the operator of an onshore
or offshore petroleum and natural gas production facility must report the
following data for the facility, disaggregated within the basin by
sub-facility:
(1) CO
2e
emissions, including CO
2, CH
4,
and N
2O as applicable for the source types specified in
section
95152(c);
(2) For combustion sources for which
emissions are reported, fuel use by fuel type;
(3) For cogeneration sources:
(A) Total thermal output (MMBtu);
(B) Net electricity generation
(MWh);
(C) Amount of electricity
generation (MWh) not consumed within the facility (i.e., exported offsite or to
another facility owner/operator);
(4) For steam generator sources:
(A) Total thermal energy generated (MMBtu)
and the CO2e emissions associated with this
output;
(B) Thermal energy (MMBtu)
not utilized within the facility (i.e., exported offsite or to another facility
owner/operator) and the CO2e emissions associated with
this output;
(5) For
electricity generation sources not included in section
95156(a)(3):
(A) Net electricity generation (MWh) and the
CO2e emissions associated with this
generation;
(B) Amount of
electricity generation (MWh) not consumed within the facility (i.e., exported
offsite or to another facility owner/operator) and the portion of
CO2e emissions associated with this
generation;
(6) Total
steam (MMBtu) utilized but not generated at the facility and the
CO2e emissions associated with this output, if
known;
(7) Barrels of crude oil
produced using thermal enhanced oil recovery. This means the volume of crude
oil produced within the facility boundary during the data year, a volume which
may include the crude oil fraction piped as an emulsion as defined in section
95102(a);
(8) Barrels of crude oil produced using
non-thermal enhanced oil recovery. This means the volume of crude oil produced
within the facility boundary during the data year, a volume which may include
the crude oil fraction piped as an emulsion as defined in section
95102(a);
(9) Heat energy (MMBtu) of associated gas
produced using thermal enhanced oil recovery. This includes the associated gas
fraction piped as an emulsion as defined in section
95102(a).
Associated gas may be quantified using production or sales meters as
appropriate. Associated gas may also be quantified by multiplying the barrels
of crude oil produced during the data year by a representative GOR measurement
plus the representative GWR measurement multiplied by the produced water
volume. When GOR and GWR measurements are used for quantifying associated gas,
these measurements must be the most disaggregated data available (e.g., field
or tank farm level). The annual weighted average HHV of the produced gas must
be multiplied by the data year volume to determine the annual heat content in
MMBtu. HHV measurements must be collected and averaged consistent with the
frequency requirements in section
95153(y)(2)(D);
(10) Heat energy (MMBtu) of associated gas
produced using non-thermal enhanced oil recovery. This includes the associated
gas fraction piped as an emulsion as defined in section
95102(a).
Associated gas may be quantified using production or sales meters as
appropriate. Associated gas may also be quantified by multiplying the barrels
of crude oil produced during the data year by a representative GOR measurement
plus the representative GWR measurement multiplied by the annual produced water
volume. When GOR and GWR measurements are used for quantifying associated gas,
these measurements must be the most disaggregated data available (e.g., field
or tank farm level). The annual weighted average HHV of the produced gas must
be multiplied by the data year volume to determine the annual heat content in
MMBtu. HHV measurements must be collected and averaged consistent with the
frequency requirements in section
95153(y)(2)(D).
(b) For dry gas production, the operator of
an onshore petroleum and natural gas production facility must report its annual
heat energy of dry gas produced (MMBtu). The annual weighted average HHV of the
produced gas must be multiplied by the data year volume to determine the heat
energy in MMBtu. HHV measurements must be collected and averaged consistent
with the frequency requirements in section
95153(y)(2)(D);
(c) The operator of a natural gas liquid
fractionating facility, or a natural gas processing facility, or an onshore
petroleum and natural gas production facility with a natural gas processing
plant that processes less than 25 MMscf per day must report the annual
production of the following natural gas liquids in barrels corrected to 60
degrees Fahrenheit:
(1) Ethane
(2) Ethylene
(3) Propane
(4) Propylene
(5) Butane
(6) Butylene
(7) Isobutane
(8) Isobutylene
(9) Pentanes plus
(10) Natural gasoline
(11) Liquefied petroleum gas
(12) Bulk natural gas liquids not included in
95156(d)(1)-(11)
If a facility extracts natural gas liquids from
produced gas, associated gas, or waste gas, and re-injects these natural gas
liquids into barrels of crude oil produced at the same facility, the operator
of such a facility shall report the amount of any re-injected natural gas
liquids as covered product data pursuant to section
95156(a)(7) or
(8). All other natural gas liquids produced
at the facility should be reported as covered product data pursuant to section
95156(c).
(d) Onshore natural gas processing facilities
that have an annual average throughput of 25 MMscf per day or greater must also
report the heat energy of associated gas, waste gas, and natural gas processed
(MMBtu). The annual weighted average HHV of the produced gas must be multiplied
by the data year volume to determine the heat energy in MMBtu. Facility
operators may quantify the volume of gas processed as either the annual output
volume or the annual throughput volume of the gas processed at the facility.
HHV measurements must be collected and averaged consistent with the frequency
requirements in 95153(y)(2)(D).
