Afren PLC's reported carbon emissions

Afren PLC, headquartered in Great Britain, has reported its carbon emissions data for the years 2010 to 2014, with the most recent available data from 2014 indicating an intensity ratio of approximately 0.45 tonnes CO2e per 1,000 tonnes of hydrocarbon produced. This figure reflects the company's operational efficiency in terms of emissions relative to production output. In 2013, the intensity ratio was about 0.2 tonnes CO2e, while in 2012 it was approximately 0.3 tonnes CO2e, and in 2011, it was around 0.4 tonnes CO2e. The data shows a fluctuating trend in emissions intensity over these years, but specific absolute emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, or 3 are not disclosed. Afren PLC has not established any formal reduction targets or commitments, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction initiatives or SBTi targets. The company does not appear to have cascaded emissions data from a parent organization, and all reported data is directly sourced from Afren PLC. Overall, while Afren PLC has demonstrated some level of emissions reporting, it lacks specific climate commitments or reduction targets, placing it in a context where further action may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate accountability.
