Oil and gas (O&G) production activities emits greenhouse gases (GHG) which must be well estimated to improve accountability and formulating efficient mitigation. The Indonesia’s GHG emission reported thru Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC) was estimated by Tier-1 Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) method, while the O&G company adopts different methodology. This leads to asynchronous GHG emission contribution of this industry to national GHG emission. This paper aims to estimate the GHG inventory from O&G offshore production facility by using American Petroleum Institute (API) Compendium Methodology and compare it with Tier-1 IPCC Methodology. It found that GHG emission estimated by API method is significantly lower than IPCC method. Both methods shown fuel combustion sources are the dominant. GHG emission sources from fuel combustion and flaring have been well identified, but emission sources from venting and fugitive need to be improved. Moreover this study identified that to have more accurate national GHG inventory, the GHG calculation method might be different for each industry segment. This evaluation could improve the future national GHG inventory and as reference for the industry. National emission factors database for O&G industry segment is highly suggested to be developed.

The flange inspection associated with piping on offshore production facilities is a time-consuming activity as the flanges should physically be opened in order to perform close visual inspections. In order to sustain maintenance integrity, a number of inspections are allocated for a subsystem based on factors such as: condition of the medium flowing in the line, risk perception of the pipeline system, and the date of installation. Inspection teams recommend inspections based on the data, experience, and exposure to offshore production facilities, as well as the intuition and intentions of those individuals involved with inspection planning and with carrying out implementation during the preventive maintenance shutdowns. However, there is a tendency for the operating company representatives to raise queries with the contractor company representatives about the number of flanges to be opened during the preventive maintenance shutdown as flange inspection consumes a considerable portion of time and resources. Hence, it is vital to interpret sensibly the importance of recommending close visual inspections for flanges if the maintenance integrity is to be sustained. This study focuses on analyzing the historical data limited to flanges on flowlines over the last fifteen years. The final results provide a snapshot of the present status of the flanges of the production facility.
