Site
Finding a super-emitter with no plan for repair
We canvassed thousands of records and field sites across Oklahoma. This orphaned well stood out: no responsible operator, no insurance, and no scheduled remediation.
Current Project Inventory
Credits offered by private placement.
CH4mber is focused on high-integrity methane abatement from measured fugitive emissions. We run a diligence-led process for buyers and partners before any allocation, delivery scheduling, or contract finalization.
Current inventory context includes 31,000+ wells in CH4mber's active database (Oklahoma + Texas 20,000+ combined; North Dakota 11,000+).

Why Schnitzer #2 Matters
Stopping superpollutant leakage delivers outsized climate benefit. For buyers, Schnitzer #2 offers immediate, auditable impact: the leak is gone, documentation is ready, and issuance is nearly complete.
~930 tonnes CH4 neutralized
Equivalent to ~27,700 tCO2e on a 50-year GWP28 basis.
Immediate climate benefit
Leak stopped on site; credits deliver as issuance finalizes (95% complete).
High-integrity registry path
Issuance status: 95% complete with independent VVB validation filed.
Local co-benefits
Groundwater and surface risks mitigated for the landowner and neighbors.
Buyer Benefits
Credits backed by full engineering logs, measurement data, and independent validation.
Fast delivery cycle: plugging completed, issuance in closing review, registry handoff measured in weeks not years.
Risk managed by CH4mber as the bonded operator with ongoing liability and insurance in force.
Visible, immediate impact that can be communicated to stakeholders with confidence.
Project context
Site to measurementSurvey
Surveying field conditions before intervention
Field teams assessed site access, surface conditions, and operational constraints to prepare safe mobilization and a defensible measurement plan.
Measure
Building the data package buyers can trust
Our licensed team took repeat onsite measurements, averaging ~52 liters per minute of methane. Independent validation and verification body (VVB) staff oversaw protocols and confirmed the emissions profile feeding directly into crediting.
Frequently Asked Questions
How are credits verified?
Credits are independently verified by third-party validators with full audit trails and transparent documentation.
Are credits ICROA-aligned?
Yes, our credits meet ICROA principles for high-integrity carbon credits with additionality, permanence, and robust measurement.
How fast can I receive credits?
Credits are issued within weeks of well plugging, typically ~60 days from completion. Much faster than traditional offset projects.
What co-benefits are included?
Groundwater protection, land restoration, and air quality improvement. 30% of unplugged wells contaminate nearby drinking water.
