Methane, as the second most emitted greenhouse gas (GHG), has a warming potential of approximately 86 times that of carbon dioxide within 20 years. Quantifying methane emissions is helpful to the country’s emission reduction efforts. However, currently, there is a lack of measurement data of methane emissions from natural gas fueling stations in China. In this study, a downwind quantification approach was employed to directly measure the methane emissions of nine compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling stations in East China according to the Environmental Protection Agency’s Other Test Method 33A (OTM 33A). Moreover, methane concentrations were also measured near the nozzle of the refueling dispenser and the process equipment in the station. The methane emissions of the nine stations lied within the range of 0.11–0.83 kg/h, and the distribution of the emission rate was skewed. It was found that the emissions from gas fueling stations could be divided into intermittent emissions and continuous emissions, of which the intermittent emissions were the main source of methane.
