This document is the final report to the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) for contract DE- FE0029068 awarded to Colorado State University (CSU). CSU and subcontractor AECOM partnered with nine U.S. midstream operators to characterize emissions from natural gas gathering and boosting stations ("gathering stations") – a sector of the natural gas supply chain where few measurements have been made and little data are available for component emissions. Although there is overlap in the classes of equipment on gathering stations with those on production sites or transmission stations that have been measured recently, emissions are likely to differ for functional and operational reasons.
