Reducing methane emissions from oil and gas operations is an important part of reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Advances in technology can help detect and identify the sources and improve the ability to respond quickly – but there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.
That’s why ExxonMobil is leading testing for the most promising next-generation methane detection technologies at 1,000 sites in Texas and New Mexico, with the aim of identifying effective, scalable solutions.
Here’s a look at the technologies ExxonMobil is working on – from outer space to on the ground. We’re also providing a roadmap for the industry to zero in on and stop methane leaks and reduce emissions.

Saving Europe’s Core Industries: Cut the Red Tape
- Europe's petrochemical sector is on life support. Site closures are accelerating, with tens of thousands of jobs lost. And this erosion extends well beyond these sectors.
- ExxonMobil has been part of Europe's progress for more than 135 years and wants to be part of the solution.
- The urgency is real because European policy is preventing, not enabling, investment. The policy framework must offer a realistic business case that makes sense.

Europe’s industrial future is under threat – but policy reform can change that
- The European Union’s (EU) Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) imposes unrealistic burdens on companies, discouraging investment and innovation.
- Current EU policy on advanced (also known as chemical) recycling undermines proven solutions to plastic waste, halts major investment in the region, and jeopardizes the EU’s ability to meet its plastic waste reduction targets.
- Without urgent regulatory reform, companies may be forced to scale back or cease operations in the EU, weakening Europe’s industrial base and slowing progress on decarbonization and economic security.

A bone-crushing burden: Darren Woods discusses CSDDD
- The European Union continues to drown businesses in red tape, with the Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive being one of the most egregious examples.
- These costly regulations would apply not just to companies with operations in Europe, but to anywhere else in the world they do business.
- Without reform, the directive would impose unworkable burdens on global businesses, forcing companies to re-evaluate doing business in the region, and ultimately weaken EU industrial competitiveness.
