In 2023, Aker BP reported total carbon emissions of approximately 90,637,800 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 16,804,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and a significant 72,607,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a continued reliance on fossil fuel production, with Scope 3 emissions representing the largest portion of their carbon footprint. In previous years, Aker BP's emissions have shown variability. For instance, in 2022, the company emitted about 63,054,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3, alongside 1,066,456,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 7,847,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2. The trend suggests a substantial contribution from upstream and downstream activities, particularly in Scope 3, which encompasses emissions from the use of sold products and other indirect sources. Despite the high emissions figures, Aker BP has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction commitments raises questions about their long-term climate strategy, especially in the context of global efforts to mitigate climate change. Overall, Aker BP's emissions data highlights the challenges faced by the oil and gas sector in transitioning to a low-carbon economy, with significant reliance on fossil fuels and a need for clearer climate commitments.
