GGFR
• Created in 2002 at the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg
• 10 years anniversary in 2012 (Global Forum in London on Oct 24-25th)
• Main Objectives:
• Reduce carbon emissions and environmental impact of flaring
• Improve energy efficiency and access to energy
• Means: • World Bank led Public – Private Partnership to facilitate gas flaring reduction
• Phase 4 just approved by partners (2013-2015)

Mission Statement
GGFR is a catalyst for reducing
wasteful and undesirable practices of
gas flaring and venting through policy
change, stakeholder facilitation and
project implementation

Global Flaring
GGFR Regional
Focus Areas
50 bcm/y
40 bcm/y
30 bcm/y
• 140 bcm of gas flared globally
o Annual gas use of Italy and France
combined
o 5% of world gas production
• 360 million tons of carbon dioxide into
the atmosphere
o 2/3 of CERs issued by the existing
registered projects under the Kyoto
mechanisms
o Emissions of 77 million cars
• Risk of upcoming increase in gas
flaring
o Oil production increases (Iraq)
o New producing countries
o Oil Shale and gas shale production

GGFR – Main Activities
• Phase 1 to 3:
– Raise Global Awareness
– Develop monitoring and measurement tools
– Develop Regulations
– Develop Gas Flaring Reduction Plans (AGRP/CIP)
– Identify and Develop Gas Utilization Projects
– Improve understanding of CDM, Carbon Finance Mechanisms and financing tools
• Phase 4 (2013-15):
– Scaling up above activities
– Increased focus on the gas value chain (including infrastructures and markets)

- Iraq burns more than half its gas production (9bcm/y)
- Rapid increase with the oil production ramp up
- This gas could
- fuel all the missing power generation in the country
- feed job creating industries
- provide LPG
- generate export revenues
• Attract investors
• Large investments needed to separate, treat, compress the gas
• Ex BGC
• Develop mid stream (infrastructure) and downstream (markets)
• Gas lines network
• Power generation, LPG market, Industry, Export
• Set up/reinforce gas institutions, and regulations
• National Gas Company(ies)
• Setting up strategy, priorities, objectives, planning
• Regulation (Gas Pricing, Transportation, Standards, Safety,…)
• Contracts management, relationship with investors

• Kuwait joined GGFR in summer 2011
– Signature ceremony in March 2012, with press
coverage
• Technical mission in March 2012 to
– Review KOC facilities
– Identify opportunities to reduce flaring below 1% of
inlet gas
– Define the “Technical Limit” to Gas flaring reduction
• Remaining Work Program
– Build up on the results of the technical mission
– Regulation
– KGOC in Divided Zone
Kuwait

Qatar
• Qatar’s commitment to flare reduction
– National Strategy for 2016 sets out clear objectives to halve flaring intensity
compared to 2008 and develop monitoring tool
– Several major Gas flaring reduction projects: Al Shaheen, Jetty Boil off gas,
Qatargas, Rasgas…
• Work Program
– Review Operators Flare Reduction Plans
– Identify and prepare Flare Reduction Pilot
– Complete gas flaring regulation
– Develop Flaring Database
Gas Flaring Reduction – Key success factors
