Methane leaks from Lenorah station highlight Permian super emitters
The Mako Compressor Station near Lenorah Texas releases about 870 kilograms of methane per hour, part of a 2021 survey that found 533 methane super emitters across the Permian Basin. AP cross referenced coordinates with permits to identify responsible companies, noting West Texas Gas owns Mako and others like Targa Resources and Navitas Midstream. Authorities acknowledge methane as a climate threat, but regulation lags. industry figures defend efforts to reduce leaks while advocates urge stronger action.
