Why methane matters
Understand the science behind methane emissions and its impact on our climate.
Chubb Methane Resource Hub
Serving oil and gas clients
Helping our clients reduce methane emissions
Welcome to the Chubb Methane Resource Hub, a digital resource to support Chubb’s oil and gas clients in identifying and adopting methane emissions reduction technologies.
Clients implementing evidence-based methane reduction plans will find information and tools, including a library of best practices, news and a directory of service providers for monitoring, leak protection and equipment.
We plan to update the Chubb Methane Resource Hub from time to time, so visit periodically for information on new tools and services.
INSIGHTS FROM EDF

Optical Gas Imaging: An Effective LDAR Method
Energy companies face a chronic challenge in their operations: The production, transportation, and refining of oil and gas products frequently results in emissions of greenhouse gases, especially methane. These leaks have environmental and financial consequences. Learn more about how to reduce emissions with an effective leak detection and repair (LDAR) program.
