Duties and Responsibilities The United Nations Environment Programme (Energy and Climate Branch) implements the International Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) and the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership 2.0 (OGMP 2.0), an ambitious reporting initiative to facilitate methane emissions reductions from the oil and gas sector. A consultant in the methane detection and mitigation process is needed to provide technical advice and support to the Programme Managers in charge of the OGMP and of the IMEO.
The OGMP 2.0 is a multi-stakeholder partnership working to improve methane emissions reporting. The updated reporting framework launched in November 2020, is the most ambitious and comprehensive reporting framework for methane emissions from the oil and gas sector. Member companies will report on methane emissions levels from all material sources across the entire oil and gas value chain, including both operated and non-operated assets. OGMP 2.0 is a comprehensive measurement-based methane reporting framework that standardizes rigorous and transparent emissions accounting practices.
OGMP 2.0 reported data will be integrated by the International Methane Emissions Observatory with other data streams (remote sensing data, scientific measurements data, national inventories).
Qualifications/special skills Competency: - Experience in detection, quantification and mitigation methane emissions methodologies and technologies within the O&G industry, in particular gas midstream and downstream assets; - Strong quantitative skills and experience in performing rigorous analyses; - Skill in synthesizing primary research and to summarize and translate technical data appropriately for a variety of audiences; - Intellectual agility and comfort with working on a wide variety of environmental topics; - Excellent written and oral communication skills; - Experience / knowledge of remote sensing and top down measurement technologies a plus; - Strong computer proficiency, including Excel, Word, and Internet research; - Ability to work independently and support a multi-disciplinary team, using independent judgment to plan, prioritize and organize a diverse workload in a fast-paced environment, - Ability to work with colleagues and partners of varied backgrounds and experience.
