But a new analysis released Tuesday shows that when it comes to the energy sector’s methane emissions, these massive firms aren’t the only major contributors. Small, relatively unknown fossil fuel drillers are some of the worst culprits, particularly when it comes to methane emissions.

Bradley & Associates, analyzes federal emissions data from the Environmental Protection Agency. As the New York Times pointed out, it shows that Hilcorp Energy, one of the largest privately held exploration and production fuel firms, is the single biggest contributor to fossil fuel methane emissions.
