Afren PLC's reported carbon emissions
Afren PLC, headquartered in Great Britain, has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon emissions over the years, particularly in its hydrocarbon production processes. The most recent emissions data available indicates a progressive reduction in the intensity of emissions, measured in tonnes CO2e per 1,000 tonnes of hydrocarbon produced. In 2014, the intensity ratio was approximately 0.45 tonnes CO2e, a slight increase from 0.2 tonnes CO2e in 2013. This reflects a general trend of decreasing emissions intensity from 0.6 tonnes CO2e in 2010 to 0.3 tonnes CO2e in 2012, showcasing a commitment to improving operational efficiency and reducing environmental impact. Despite the absence of specific reduction targets or climate pledges, Afren PLC's historical data suggests a focus on minimising emissions through operational improvements. The company has not disclosed any Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, which limits the understanding of its overall carbon footprint. However, the ongoing efforts to lower emissions intensity indicate a proactive approach to climate commitments within the oil and gas sector.
