10 LIST OF REFERENCES

Result of five years of field testing of equipment components at production facilities across the United States, is a valuable tool for petroleum producers who are interested in estimating fugitive emissions from their oil and gas production sites. Four methods of calculating fugitive emissions are presented: EPA Average Emission Factor Method, EPA Screening Value Range Emission Method, EPA Correlation Method, and Leak Quantification Method.
