Crude · products · LNG · EU Methane Regulation
From 2030, a cargo that cannot evidence its intensity cannot be sold into Europe.
Article 30 of the Methane Regulation required the Commission to have the EU Methane Transparency Database running by 5 February 2026; it was not, and launch has been reported for September. From 2027 new import contracts must show measurement, reporting and verification equivalent to EU producer standards. Intensity reporting follows in 2028, and maximum intensity thresholds in 2030 — at which point this stops being a reporting question and starts deciding what can be traded.
Equivalence attaches to the molecule, not to the company holding it — so it reaches producers, traders, refiners, shipowners and the people financing them, in different ways. The questions below adapt to which of those you are, and tell you which obligations are open and which falls due first.
Send this report to yourself
Optional. This is the one thing on this page that leaves your browser: your email address and the report above. Your answers are not stored anywhere else, and nothing is sent unless you press the button.
What this is. A readiness indicator against published obligations, generated from your own answers. It is not a compliance determination, not a regulatory submission and not legal advice, and it does not quantify emissions — that is a measurement problem for instrumentation and qualified people, not a web form. Every obligation above links to its source so you can check it. Confirm the detail that applies to your asset class with your own advisers.
Why this is built the way it is
Three constraints, chosen because the alternative in each case is a tool that reads well and cannot be trusted.
Nothing you enter leaves your browser
There is no server and no request. Your compliance posture is commercially sensitive, and you should not have to hand it to a stranger to find out where you stand. Check the network tab.
Every obligation cites its source
You can follow each one back to the regulation or the framework it comes from. A requirement nobody can attribute is worse than a requirement left out.
Nothing is quantified that cannot be cited
No modelled fine exposure, no estimated savings. The rules carry their own numbers and dates; anything beyond those would be a guess wearing a decimal point.
The assessment is the easy part.
Closing a measurement and verification gap is a data problem before it is an engineering one: source-level inventories reconciled against site measurement, survey and repair evidence an auditor can follow, supplier data arriving in a usable shape, and reporting that assembles itself rather than consuming a team each cycle. That is the kind of system CM Solutions builds.
