Emission factor from TurkStat CRT-2026-V1.0

Fugitive emissions, oil and natural gas: venting and flaring, flaring, gas

Turkey · Fugitive releases · 2024 onwards

Each m³ processed released to the air from 2024 counts as 0.00307 kg CO₂e, its 100-year warming potential under IPCC AR6.

Value from 2024 onwards

Where 0.00307 comes from

Derived by open-climate.ai

open-climate.ai adds up the gases TurkStat publishes, each weighted by its warming potential.

Reporting this cubic metre under the GHG Protocol

Scope 1 0.00307

Gas that escapes from equipment you run is a direct emission, so it is your Scope 1.

Every horizon, every IPCC report

A warming potential rests on two choices: how many years of warming are counted, and which IPCC assessment report supplies the numbers. TurkStat publishes one of these 9 cells; the other 8 read “Not published by TurkStat”.

What this number covers

One step: the gas getting out. Nothing before or after it is counted.

  1. Released to the air

    Gas escaping from equipment, a process or a container, counted by the mass that gets out.

    Included1 m³ processed

  2. Warming over 100 years

    Heat trapped by that kilogram, compared with 1 kg of CO₂: its GWP100 from the IPCC's sixth report.

    Included× 0.00307

  3. Your record

    1 m³ processed of gas released. The factor is per m³ processed that escapes, not per m³ processed held.

    = 0.00307

Outside this boundary

  • Making the gas
  • Burning fuel

Producing the gas is a different factor, reported when you buy it (Scope 3, category 1). Fuel burned on site has factors of its own.

A warming potential, not a measurement

Nobody measured this number at a site. It is the warming caused by 1 kg of the gas over 100 years, divided by the warming of 1 kg of CO₂. It is the same wherever the gas escapes.

m³ processed released × 0.00307 = kg CO₂e
