Note that there are three several types of reporters under the Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program: direct emitters, suppliers, and facilities that inject CO2 underground. Direct emitters are entities that emit GHGs directly from their facilities as a result of combustion or processing industrial processes onsite. Suppliers are facilities or entities that supply certain products (e.g., fossil fuels or certain industrial gases) into the economy that, when combusted, released, or oxidized, result in GHG emissions. The emissions do not take place at the suppliers' reporting location. CO2 injection facilities report the quantity of CO2 received for injection, including for use in enhanced oil and gas recovery. Facilities reporting under the Onshore Oil and Gas Production source category are included in the direct emitters portion of the tool, but you can also isolate these facilities and view a GIS layer outlining the boarders of each basin where facilities in this industry operate.

Several types of direct emitters report emissions over broad spatial areas. These include companies engaged in onshore oil and gas production and local distribution companies. FLIGHT allows you to view data reported by these types of facilities as well.

The default view in FLIGHT shows GHG emissions reported by direct emitters. This page provides step-by-step instruction for finding data from suppliersother types of facilities.

Onshore Oil and Gas Production or Local Distribution Companies from the Data Type Drop Down Menu

By default, the tool will display information from direct emitters. To switch from direct emitter data to supplier data, data reported by facilities that inject CO2 or Onshore Oil and Gas Production data, Local Distribution Company Data, or CO2 Injection data, click the "Data Type" drop down at the top left of the screen. You can now select the data type of interest.
