Afren PLC's reported carbon emissions

As of the latest available data, Afren PLC has not disclosed specific carbon emissions figures for recent years. The most recent emissions data available is from 2014, where the company reported an intensity ratio of approximately 0.45 tonnes CO2e per 1,000 tonnes of hydrocarbon produced. This figure indicates the carbon intensity of their operations, but no absolute emissions numbers are provided for Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions. Afren PLC has not set any publicly available reduction targets or commitments, nor have they reported any initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of specific reduction targets suggests that the company may not currently be prioritising formal climate commitments. The emissions data and intensity ratios are sourced directly from Afren PLC's disclosures, with no cascaded data from parent or related organizations. As such, the company appears to be operating independently in terms of its climate reporting and commitments.
