Abstract
In the current energy scenario, natural gas (NG) represents at least 20 % of the global primary en-ergy consumption and more than 30 % of the overall fossils consumption. After the 2020 pandem-ic, amid a first reduction in the demand of c. 3%, the growth of the NG sector surpassed other fos-sil fuels reaching up to 5 %. Indeed, NG has been envisaged as an enabler for the transition to-wards a low greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions economy, due to its improved environmental per-formance compare to other fossil feedstock. The environmental impacts of full supply chains are gaining relevance for the current climate change mitigation goals.
Shedding light on the indirect emissions (and not only on the direct ones resulting from fossil fuels combustion) can revel important environmental footprints to be ad-dressed
