Satellite Images Reveal #MegaLeaks of Potent Greenhouse Gas

UCLA's #StopMethaneProject ranked the 25 oil and gas sites with the largest methane emissions rates worldwide.

Published March 18, 2026

"Researchers with the Stop Methane Project at the University of California, Los Angeles, used data from #CarbonMapper—a non-profit that uses remote sensing technology to pinpoint and quantify methane emissions—to rank these mega-leaks. They’re spread across a small handful of countries, including the #US, with the majority in #Turkmenistan. A whopping 15 of the 25 largest leaks are concentrated in this #authoritarian state."

"Once in operation, the spacecraft will scan about 50,000 square miles (130,000 square kilometers) of Earth’s surface per day. #CarbonMapper scientists will analyze data from Tanager-1 to identify gas plumes with the unique spectral signatures of #methane and #CarbonDioxide — and pinpoint their sources. Plume data will be publicly available online at the Carbon Mapper data portal."
