New paper w/ @BenGilbertEcon @gregbupton & Wes Blundell shows #Permian #pipeline congestion (measured by price differentials) spikes #methane & #flaring. Our data were only 2015-21, but congestion (and emissions) is still an issue.

What are the impacts of congestion in natural gas processing and transmission infrastructure on flaring and methane emissions in the Permian? New working paper with @magerton, Wes Blundell @WSUecons and @gregbupton provides evidence. Link: dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn.4890…
The heterogeneity arises because when congestion occurs, gas-directed wells reduce production whereas oil-directed wells do not. This suggests that increasing midstream infrastructure may lower emissions without altering overall production, depending on well type.

I'm really excited to share this new @rff working paper, which is the result of >2 years of data collection and analysis. It quantifies local government revenue from various energy sources across 79 counties in 10 US states (🧵/8)

#EconTwitter, what's the status of continuous treatment DiD when an observation can be "treated" multiple times. (i.e. the Callaway and Sant'Anna (2021) min. wage example, but I want to include data beyond "first treatment"). Did I miss it?

Lots of talk about a 16-team World Cup after last night. ✌️ things...
1. Namibia have 4 games in 19 days & changed 11 players in their starting lineup last night.
2. We should be asking how we can give these teams more opportunities to improve, not how we can cut them off.
I have a code to the thing Willie Nelson sang about if anyone wants one. Starting to pick up over there!

Does "A Mixed Bag" already have it in the bag? Or can "Drill-Bit Parity" get up to parity in the polls during the last 12 hours of voting?
