Objective:

The central goal of this NAMA is the creation of a framework program that allows project activities consisting of the reduction of methane emission by means of the minimization and/or elimination of fugitive and black carbon emissions in the components of the process, transport and distribution of the national natural gas system.

Activities: (2014 - 2034)
Detailed activities are not available yet

Impact and MRV

Cumulative GHG reductions: 2.863 MtCO2e

Mitigative capacity:

No information has been provided on mitigative capacity

Co-benefits:

Social:	1. Improve population health from GHG emission reductions 2. Improved operations and risk management in Natural Gas infrastructure along the national system
Economic:	1. Natural Gas production process improvements and economic savings from the methane emission reductions 2. Additional investment in Natural Gas infrastructure through monitoring and quantifying fugitive emissions
Environmental:	Black carbon emission reductions through the instalation of pilot flame lighter electronic devices at the natural gas burners

MRV Framework:
No MRV plan has been defined
