Natural Gas Driven Pneumatic Pumps

This page provides an overview of the natural gas driven pneumatic pumps source type reporting requirements for Subpart W.

Please see Reporting Form Instructions on downloading the blank reporting form and uploading the completed reporting form.
You may also refer to Optional Calculation Spreadsheet Instructions to download the Subpart W calculation spreadsheet.

The natural gas driven pneumatic pumps source type is applicable to Onshore petroleum and natural gas production (98.236(a)(2)) and Onshore petroleum and natural gas gathering and boosting (98.236(a)(9)) facilities.

Indicate if the facility has the source type via the radio buttons.

If the source type is present you must report required elements.

If the facility has the source type, then indicate whether missing data procedures were used.

Reporting Requirements

Table C.1 NG Driven Pneumatic Pumps emissions must be completed if the facility has any natural gas driven pneumatic pumps subject to reporting under 98.232.

  •  Required data include:
    • Total count of natural gas driven pneumatic pumps [98.236(c)(1)]
    • Average estimated number of hours in the calendar year that natural gas driven pneumatic pumps were operated (hours) [98.236(c)(2)]
    • Total CO2 Emissions (mt CO2) [98.236(c)(3)]
    • Total CH4 Emissions (mt CH4) [98.236(c)(4)]                                                                              

Table C.1 NG Driven Pneumatic Pumps emissions

Table C.2 is required for the identification of missing data procedures used for natural gas driven pneumatic pump emission calculations.

  • Required data include:
    • Parameters
    • Measurement Frequency
    • Number of quarters missing data procedures were used [98.236(bb)(1)] (required only if the measurement frequency was quarterly)

    • Total number of hours in the year missing data procedure was used [98.3(c)(8)], [98.236(bb)(2)] (required unless the measurement frequency was quarterly, annually, biannually or N/A)

    • Procedures used for missing data [98.235(h)]

Total Emissions

The total emissions roll-up at the top of the sheet reflects the sum of each gas emission reported for the source type. These summations are calculated automatically by the Smart Form and tabulated on the Introduction tab.
