Abstract

A system can include one or more sensors at a wellsite. The system can detect first emission data about emissions with respect to a wellbore over a first period of time. The system can detect second emission data about emissions with respect to the wellbore over a second period of time. The system can determine an adjustment to a plug and abandonment operation with respect to the wellbore based on the first emission data. The system can determine an amount of reduction in emissions from the wellbore using the first emission data and the second emission data. The system can output the amount of reduction in the emissions.
