Environmental
GHG Reduction Commitments and Goals
Since 2000, Targa has been a member company of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Natural Gas STAR Program, a voluntary partnership between the EPA and oil and gas companies to reduce methane emissions.
In 2021, Targa joined Our Nation’s Energy Future (ONE Future), a coalition that comprises more than 40 natural gas companies committed to working together to voluntarily target a reduction of methane emissions intensity across the natural gas value chain to 1% (or less) by 2025. In addition, we joined API’s Environmental Partnership, a group of United States oil and gas companies that work together to improve the industry’s environmental performance, including leak detection and flaring practices.
In 2021, we developed specific, near-term methane intensity reduction targets, including:
- Reducing our methane intensity to 0.08% by 2025 for our gathering and boosting segment.
- Reducing our methane intensity to 0.11% by 2025 for our processing segment
