In her current role, Ingrid is focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions by increasing transparency and understanding of methane emissions from the O&G sector. She works to ensure that methane emissions are accounted for as accurately as possible through strengthened Measurement, Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification protocols in U.S. subnational policy and that buyers are preferentially purchasing gas confirmed through robust protocols to have been produced with low methane emissions. Ingrid is leading CMTI’s global methane capacity building efforts to accelerate methane mitigation in emerging producer countries, working with stakeholders in the Global South to identify and advance actionable methane management strategies.
Background
Ingrid’s background is in characterizing and quantifying methane emissions from oil and gas production. Prior to joining RMI, Ingrid conducted ground-based measurement campaigns and combined data collected at multiple scales in models to estimate methane emissions and identify their sources.
