The SANGEA System What is it? Why did we develop it? Why are we offering it free to industry? What does it mean for you? DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 2 2

SANGEA TM Energy and Greenhouse Gas Inventory Software Enables data collection, computation, compilation and reporting Excel-based, compatible with standard Personal Computer (PC) Single system and methodology for all facilities User customizes for location User can choose input and output units (metric, English, mass, volume) Flexible level of detail/aggregation Total fuel gas utilization OR by source Incorporates API 2001 methodologies DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 3 3

Conventional Systems Protocol Document Boundaries Methodologies Factors Numerous User-Developed Systems to Implement Inventory Protocol Simple Data Form Corporate Database Excel Form GHG Data Total CO 2 Lotus Notes CH 4 Equity CO 2 CH 4 Hard Copy Manuals Difficult to Control Revisions Inefficient Inconsistent to Support Does Not Encourage/ Facilitate/Standardize Audit Trail Information Total and Equity CO 2, CH 4, CO 2 (e) for Each Reporting Entity DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 4 4

Scope Gases Included Carbon Dioxide Methane Nitrous Oxide Gases Screened HFCs PFCs SF6 DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 6 6

Scope (Continued) Emission Sources Included: Onsite fuel consumption Process emissions Flaring Venting Reinjection (emission credit) Electricity Import/Export Fugitive Emissions Onsite Waste Treatment DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 7 7

Why Did We Develop the SANGEA TM System? Electronic Implementation of API Compendium of Greenhouse Gas Emissions Estimation Methodologies for the Oil and Gas Industry Industry-wide Standardization/Consistency DOE 1605(b) revisions WRI/WBCSD Protocol EPA Climate Leaders ISO Standard Internal Standardization/Consistency Consistent with IPIECA-led effort to develop standardized protocol for the petroleum industry DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 8 8

Why are we Offering the SANGEA TM Software Free of Charge? Demonstrate our Commitment to Action Climate change is an important issue If you can t measure it, you can t manage it Promote Consistency in Emissions Estimating Advantageous for companies in partnerships to have common tools that yield consistent results Improve comparability of data across industry Provide a tool as a starting point to initiate action Enable additional participation in voluntary industry GHG inventory efforts DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 9 9

What does It Mean for You? Consistent, Auditable, Efficient, Up-to-date system for estimating energy, greenhouse gas and criteria pollutant emissions Integrated with API Compendium and IPIECA Guidelines efforts Modular approach useful in a variety of industries Easy to update as facilities change Can be applied to carbon sequestration projects (currently being used to document carbon dioxide reinjection at the ChevronTexaco Rangely facility) DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 10 10

Lessons Learned Successes Comprehensive system has many advantages Common methodologies Data management Version control Able to focus on Quality Assurance/Quality Control at the reporting entity level Acceptance of system was facilitated by involving users in its development Software includes both energy and greenhouse gas, as well as criteria pollutants Software designed so that upgrades can be easily implemented DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 11 11

Lessons Learned Bruce Beynon, senior environmental engineer in the Mid- Continent Business Unit in ChevronTexaco North America Upstream, was one of the dozens of people who helped test and recommend changes to the beta version of the software. A major improvement with SANGEA TM software, says Beynon, is it s more flexible and easier to update as facilities change. It also allows me to account for varying emissions from different fuel compositions and different sources of electricity, which not only helps us in Mid- Continent, where we've got production facilities in different states, but is invaluable in operating companies that have facilities in different countries. DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 12 12

Lessons Learned Areas for Improvement Users need to systematically self-check input and output data Need to assess materiality Users guide is too technical Needs examples Need standard protocol for petroleum industry Make flaring and combustion modules more similar to improve user-friendliness DOC 1/23/02 ID ab Nordrum G020075 13 13

Summary Systematic, 1+-year effort to develop inventory Project Manager Stakeholder Group 70+ Users Ongoing Help Desk and Upgrades Off-the-shelf technology not available Unique Attributes Enterprise-wide deployment Verifiable system Based on API methodology Flexible and customizable for the energy industry SANGEA TM is a trademark of ChevronTexaco Corporation for greenhouse gas emissions calculation software.
