Over the years, Antero Resources has demonstrated a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint. For instance, in 2022, the company achieved total emissions of about 251,062,000 kg CO2e, down from 548,967,000 kg CO2e in 2019. This trend reflects a broader effort to enhance operational efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. However, their ongoing reductions in emissions intensity, particularly in Scope 1 emissions, suggest a proactive approach to climate responsibility. Antero Resources continues to focus on improving its emissions profile, with a notable decrease in GHG intensity from approximately 1,400 kg CO2e per barrel of oil equivalent in 2021 to about 1,100 kg CO2e in 2023. This aligns with industry standards for climate action and reflects a growing awareness of the need for sustainable practices within the energy sector.
