Policy and regulatory analysis

Stay ahead of policy and compliance.

At ADI Analytics, we help you master complex and evolving policy and regulatory landscapes. We’re experts at translating policy into practical business implications, ensuring you stay compliant and competitive.

Our regulatory insights are built on rigorous primary research and deep policy expertise across oil & gas, energy, and chemicals. We go beyond the surface with a comprehensive approach:

  • We diligently track advanced notices of proposed rulemakings (ANPRs), proposed rules, final rules, and other guidance documents.
  • We monitor agencies like the EPA, FERC, DOE, PHMSA, and relevant state-level authorities.
  • Our team is highly familiar with the EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program (GHGRP) and other crucial public databases and filing resources.
  • We actively track public comment dockets to understand industry and public feedback.

This detailed, proactive monitoring allows us to understand the nuanced intent behind regulations and their potential cascading effects on your market dynamics, technology adoption, and operational strategies across oil & gas, energy, and chemicals.
