GGFR DATA TOOL GLOBAL GAS FLARING REDUCTION PARTNERSHIP

Flaring Data Reporting Tool Why develop the Data Tool ? Good quality data reporting is a part of the Standard. Therefore, there was a need to : better understand vented and flared gas volumes on country specific basis to manage it gather consistent data with flexibility track flaring reduction versus projected forecasts Include oil production to put flaring level in context

Country Ownership: Country Administrator (CA). Will usually be a NOC or Ministry representative. Controls, accesses and publishes relevant data Data Input and validation: Input coordinator (INC) and approver (OAC). Will both be from the asset operators. Website Support: Data Base Administrator (DA). By the World Bank. Reporting: Web users (NGOs, Multilateral organizations, universities, press, general public…) A useful tool to determine the baseline for gas flaring and venting and manage the reduction Flaring Data Reporting Tool

Country Administrator (CA) : Defines the hydrocarbon assets and their operators Defines the users, with login id and initial password Defines the data base rules (reporting timing & frequency, number of forecast years, sending of reminders, access rights to reports, …) Releases (final approval) of reports at the asset level. He/she may reject a data record and inform the OAC and INC by of the reason why Decides on release for public reporting at the country level Flaring Data Reporting Tool

Operator Assurance Coordinator (OAC) : Sole corporate responsibility for data quality and timing for all an operator’s assets vis-à-vis Country Administrator (CA) Defines list of sub assets in each asset Validates or rejects INC’s data input on sub-asset basis Cannot make any changes to the data. He/she may reject a data record and inform the INC by of the reason why Flaring Data Reporting Tool

Input Coordinator (INC): Responsible for: - Collecting actual and forecast data per agreed sub asset - Inputting the data - Correcting data records rejected by the OAC or CA Flaring Data Reporting Tool
