The company continues to focus on its operational emissions, primarily from direct activities (Scope 1) and energy consumption (Scope 2), while also acknowledging the significance of indirect emissions (Scope 3) in its overall carbon footprint. As McDermott navigates its climate commitments, it remains essential for the company to establish clear reduction strategies to align with industry standards and global climate goals.
