Equatorial Guinea vs Peru: Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy)
Methane (CH4) emissions from Fugitive Emissions (Energy) over time
- Equatorial Guinea
- Peru
How they compare
Peru currently reports 2.82 Mt CO2e against 2.55 Mt CO2e in Equatorial Guinea, a difference of 0.27 Mt CO2e.
That makes Peru's figure about 1.1 times Equatorial Guinea's.
The two have swapped places 2 times across 55 shared years of data; in 1970 it was Peru ahead.
Equatorial Guinea ranks 69th and Peru ranks 67th of 192 countries.
Across the 6 decades both report, Equatorial Guinea averaged higher in 3 and Peru in 3.

About this data
A measure of annual emissions of methane (CH4), one of the six Kyoto greenhouse gases (GHG), from fugitive emissions (subsector of the energy sector) including IPCC 2006 codes 1.A.1.bc Petroleum Refining - Manufacture of Solid Fuels and Other Energy Industries, 1.B.1 Solid Fuels, 1.B.2 Oil and Natural Gas, 5.B. The measure is standardized to carbon dioxide equivalent values using the Global Warming Potential (GWP) factors of IPCC's 5th Assessment Report (AR5).
