Analysis
Chad recorded 3.11 Mt CO2e for methane (ch4) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in 2024.
That represents a change of down 2.2% on the previous year and up 23.5% over ten years.
Over the whole period, methane (ch4) emissions from fugitive emissions (energy) in Chad peaked at 3.18 Mt CO2e in 2023 and was at its lowest, 0.0411 Mt CO2e, in 1970.
Chad ranks 64th of 192 countries on this measure, in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.

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).
