This study, published in the American Chemical Society’s Sustainable Chemistry & Engineering Journal, includes a novel gas-pathing algorithm that enhances GHG emissions modeling across Cheniere's supply chain.
By integrating measurement data from the Company's facilities and collaborations with natural gas producers, midstream providers, shippers, and academic experts, the study leverages Cheniere’s multi-year Quantification, Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (QMRV) program.

The study highlights the importance of integrating measurement data into LCAs to accurately characterize GHG emissions from natural gas supply chains, reinforcing the environmental competitiveness of Cheniere’s LNG.
