DENVER, Oct. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- PureWest Energy, LLC ("PureWest"), an independent natural gas company based in Wyoming's Green River Basin, announces today that it has chosen Validere as the company's emissions quantification and reconciliation solution.

A measurement, reporting, and verification (MRV) SaaS company, Validere's Carbon Hub SaaS platform and team of industry experts will synthesize PureWest's emissions and operational data, informing the company's carbon reduction strategies. This data-driven approach complements PureWest's Project Canary TrustWell ™ certification and fieldwide stationary monitoring strategy.

Validere will validate and organize operational and emissions data into a consolidated platform that PureWest can utilize across multiple emission reduction initiatives. In particular, this will allow PureWest to highgrade its emissions data as part of commitments to the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership (OGMP) 2.0. As a recognized top ESG performer, PureWest recently joined the initiative as an important next step in the company's mission to responsibly deliver essential energy with exceptional reliability and proven environmental stewardship.
