Energy Overwatch partnered with Iconic Air to host a focused webinar, “O&G U.S. Regulatory Update: Where to Focus,” led by Dana A. Wood, P.E., Vice President of Environmental Compliance & Consulting.
The session provided operators and environmental professionals with a clear view of today’s most important federal regulatory shifts, including NSPS OOOOb/c, Subpart W reconsideration, the Waste Emissions Charge, PHMSA’s new LDAR rule, the BLM Waste Prevention Rule, and SEC climate disclosure requirements. Dana emphasized how these changes continue to influence planning, even as rulemakings, litigation, and administrative reviews evolve.
Key Compliance Focus Areas
The presentation highlighted where operators face the highest enforcement risk today, including:
- Unlit or malfunctioning flares
- Tank thief hatch and PRD emissions
- Closed vent system design and seal integrity issues
- Flare duration documentation and root-cause analysis
- LDAR follow-up and recordkeeping gaps
- Pneumatic controller compliance under OOOOb
“This is the ideal time to strengthen core compliance programs,” Wood noted. “Enforcement doesn’t stop just because regulations shift.”
Supporting Operators Through Change
Iconic Air showcased how digital tools improve emissions tracking, flare monitoring, and LDAR workflows, while Energy Overwatch reinforced the value of combining strong technology with practical field execution and compliance strategy.
