AMS-III.P — Recovery and utilization of waste gas in refinery facilities

What CarbonMeld reads

• shown

  Leakage: the methodology sets rules for it in some cases (AMS-III.P v01 para 22, p. 5). CarbonMeld reads it in the project's documents. CM-F-AMS-III-P-LEAKAGE

• A confirmed investment analysis A-INVEST

  The documents show a project-level additionality test, the validation confirmed it, and it is an investment analysis (a numeric test of the project's finances with and without carbon revenue).

Figures set against the methodology's own values

• Integrity comparison

  The small-scale limit is 60 kt CO2e per year (p. 2). CarbonMeld compares the project's annual estimate with it. CM-F-AMS-III-P-SMALL-SCALE-LIMIT

  small-scale limit: 60 kt CO2e per year

Set by the methodology or the programme, not assessed by our current method

  Tracking of the end use: the methodology sets rules for it in some cases (AMS-III.P v01 applicability, p. 1). Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-AMS-III-P-END-USE-TRACKING

  Social safeguards and consent of communities (FPIC): any such rules come from the programme, not the methodology. Our current method does not assess it. CM-F-AMS-III-P-SAFEGUARDS-FPIC

• A methane activity the law requires A-LEGAL

  The rule applies to projects that capture or avoid methane. These are landfill gas, manure, wastewater, composting and coal-mine methane. They also include orphan wells, oil and gas leaks, rice, enteric methane and household biogas. The documents state that the law requires the activity. Or the documents state that a law requires the capture of the gas. An activity that the law already requires is not additional. If the documents show that the baseline already deducts the amount that the law requires, CarbonMeld takes no point.
