EQT joins international initiative to lower methane emissions
Friday, June 25, 2021
EQT announced it has joined Climate and Clean Air Coalition’s Oil & Gas Methane Partnership, an initiative committed to lowering methane emissions in line with the Paris climate accord, according to Natural Gas World.
The oil and gas companies who’ve joined the initiative are responsible for more than 30% of global oil and gas production. The newest participant, EQT, is the largest natural gas producer in the United States.
EQT’s recent declaration followed a similar commitment to ensure a majority of its production in the Marcellus Shale is certified as responsibly sourced gas by the end of the year.

Shale FAQ
What are mineral rights?
Mineral rights are the rights of the owner of the property to mine or produce any resources below the surface of the property. Mineral rights are different from surface rights.
Will I get free natural gas if I allow fracking on my property?
Maybe. It depends on your particular lease agreement. Some companies allow property owners a yearly free gas allowance. But, the process of connecting your property to the gas source may be more complicated. Some companies will provide a hookup, others require the landowner to provide one.
