1.  What is orphan well plugging, and why is it important?

Orphan well plugging is the process of permanently sealing oil and gas wells that no longer have operators responsible for their maintenance. These wells leak dangerous methane, a greenhouse gas with a global warming potential far higher than CO2. Plugging these wells prevents methane emissions, helps prevent soil and water contamination, and restores land for future use.

2.  How does VitalEco's approach help reduce greenhouse gas emissions?

Our method prevents methane leaks at the source. Properly sealing orphan wells caps emissions instantly, reducing the release of methane and thus significantly lowering greenhouse gas impact. Methane's effect on global warming is 80 times greater than CO2 over twenty years, making our efforts crucial for immediate climate benefits.

3.  What makes VitalEco's solution different from other approaches?

  • Advanced Monitoring: We prioritize high-emitting wells with precise methane measurement and monitoring technologies.
  • High-quality Sealing: Our well-plugging uses industry-proven, durable materials to ensure long-term emission prevention.
  • Impact Tracking: Data-backed results help us measure and verify the exact greenhouse gas reduction at each site.
  • Community Benefits: Our projects generate local employment, engage stakeholders, and align with environmental goals.

4.  What benefits does VitalEco's well-plugging provide to the community?

  • Local Employment: We partner with local contractors and communities, creating job opportunities and supporting local economies.
  • Environmental Health: By reducing methane emissions, we improve air quality and support local biodiversity.
  • Sustainable Development: Our projects contribute to achieving UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), promoting both ecological and social well-being.

5.  What are VitalEco's future goals for orphan well plugging?

VitalEco aims to plug hundreds of wells, with a goal of avoiding millions of tonnes of CO2-equivalent emissions.  Our long-term vision includes scaling operations to prevent tens of millions of tonnes of CO2-equivalent emissions by 2030.

6.  How does VitalEco measure the environmental impact of its projects?

We use robust measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) processes. Field sensors and flow meters establish baseline emissions before plugging, and post-plugging measurements quantify the reduction. Calculations are verified by third-party organizations to ensure accuracy and transparency, with results registered on the CarbonPath blockchain.

7.  What steps are VitalEco taking to ensure project durability and reliability?

We work with state-approved contractors who follow stringent standards, ensuring that our well plugs prevent emissions for decades. Our sealing materials and techniques are designed for long-term effectiveness, and our monitoring technology verifies zero emissions after plugging, maintaining site integrity.

8.  What are the primary risks associated with orphan well plugging, and how does VitalEco address them?

  • Technical Risks: Unforeseen well conditions and potential for seal failure are managed with advanced mapping and state-of-the-art plugging technology.
  • Environmental Risks: Strict protocols and high-quality materials minimize the chance of leaks.
  • Financial and Regulatory Risks: We secure consistent funding and comply with all legal requirements, partnering with regulatory bodies to maintain project integrity, compliance, and approvals.

9.  How is VitalEco funded?

Our initial projects have been funded by VitalEco's project sponsors, with ongoing support from climate-focused companies and private subscribers.  We do not use taxpayer dollars. We're also actively marketing our carbon credits and working with companies that aim to meet net zero targets.

10.  Who are VitalEco's partners in these projects?

VitalEco collaborates with CarbonPath (carbon registry), ALL Consulting (validation and verification), the Well Done Foundation (qualified methane measurement), and local plugging companies and state agencies across the U.S.. These partnerships help us execute well-plugging projects effectively and ensure compliance with environmental standards.
