In 2023, Chord Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,500,209,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, which includes direct emissions from their operations. Additionally, their Scope 2 emissions amounted to about 282,658,000 kg CO2e, representing indirect emissions from purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling. Over the past few years, Chord Energy has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. In 2022, the company achieved a reduction in Scope 1 emissions to about 1,588,769,000 kg CO2e, down from approximately 1,751,519,000 kg CO2e in 2021. This trend continued into 2023, indicating a positive trajectory in their emissions management. Despite these reductions, there are currently no specific reduction targets or climate pledges disclosed by Chord Energy, which may limit their accountability in the context of industry standards for climate action. The company has reported Scope 1 methane intensity at 2,900 kg CO2e per tonne in 2023, a significant decrease from previous years, reflecting their efforts to mitigate methane emissions. Overall, while Chord Energy has made strides in reducing its emissions, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests an area for potential improvement in their climate commitments.
