- GHG emissions and climate change transition risks
- Potential for increasingly stringent regulations related to drilling activities or hydraulic fracturing
- Potential impact of legislation or regulations addressing climate change and GHG emissions on markets and demand for products
- Potential for increased cost of operating natural gas facilities due to tax on waste methane emissions (IRA 2022)
- Potential for changing precipitation patterns and increased geohazards in mountainous areas
- Potential for supply chain disruptions
