Methane Mitigation Europe Summit 2026

February 24-26, 2026 - Hoofddorp, Netherlands

Why Methane Mitigation Europe?

The 2026 Methane Mitigation Europe Summit is more than a conference - it's the principal meeting place for oil and gas stakeholders tasked with delivering on the EU Methane Regulation, one of the world's most ambitious climate policies in history.

Held ahead of key 2027 compliance deadlines under the EU Methane Regulation, Methane Mitigation Europe is the critical touchpoint for 400+ operators, regulators, exporters, investors and traders preparing for import standards and MRV alignment.

It's up to you and the industry to ensure successful implementation, proving that oil and gas can play a credible role in a lower-carbon world. Join your peers and set the roadmap to Europe's energy future.

What's happening at the 2026 Methane Mitigation Europe Summit?

We're stepping things up. Following a sell-out year in 2025, the summit will return to a new, larger venue providing a space to bring you more industry leading voices, more innovation, and more impact under one roof - including an expanded expo hall designed to showcase the technologies shaping the future of methane mitigation.

From topic-led roundtables to a Forging Collaboration session, every interaction is designed to help you identify peers facing similar challenges and build lasting, solution-driven relationships. Plus, you'll benefit from high value case studies, keynotes, workshops, and more!

2026 Key Themes of Discussion Include:

  • Navigating EUMR Compliance Amid Evolving Expectations: Learn the specificities of the regulation and the outcome of the Delegated Acts and Omnibus. Discover how to eliminate routine flaring and venting, improve destruction/removal efficiency, and deploy both Type 1 and Type 2 LDAR campaigns.
  • Global MRV Standards: Building Alignment Across Borders: Examine how international actors - particularly from the Middle East to the United States - are responding to the EUMR, and explore the harmonisation of global MRV frameworks, including OGMP 2.0 and MiQ. You'll learn how to navigate cross-border data expectations, third-party audits, and dive into the growing role of digital MRV platforms.
  • Optimizing Technical Best Practice: Discover the best practices for evaluating and deploying methane detection, quantification, and reduction technologies to meet emissions goals, and how to build a fit-for-purpose tech strategy based on operational needs, regulatory requirements, and site conditions.
  • Building Internal Capability to Scale Methane Mitigation: Dive into how operators are building internal taskforces, balancing in-house and outsourced expertise, and embedding methane KPIs across teams. You'll walk away with practical models to scale capability and internal ownership, and learn how to foster cross-functional collaboration between operations, ESG, compliance, and procurement to drive sustained impact.
  • Integration of Methane Goals with wider Business Strategy: Explore how to identify projects that reduce lost product, improve operational efficiency, and support commercial goals. And, understand how to position methane initiatives in a way that resonates with internal decision-makers, while responding to growing investor pressure and evolving market signals like insurance premiums and sustainability-linked finance.

This is, as a professional, is one of my favourite moments in the year as it allow us to connect and reconnect with other brilliant minds in the sector in a friendly environment. It is encouraging to see how the number of adepts is increasing constantly.
