Apa's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Apa reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,793,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and 2 sources. This includes about 1,573,000,000 kg CO2e from stationary combustion and 179,000,000 kg CO2e from fugitive emissions (Scope 1), alongside 221,000,000 kg CO2e from purchased electricity (Scope 2). Comparatively, in 2022, Apa's emissions were about 1,790,000,000 kg CO2e, with 1,409,000,000 kg CO2e from stationary combustion and 199,000,000 kg CO2e from fugitive emissions. The Scope 2 emissions for that year were approximately 215,000,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, Apa has shown a trend of decreasing emissions from 2021, where total emissions were about 1,883,000,000 kg CO2e, including 1,477,000,000 kg CO2e from stationary combustion and 541,000,000 kg CO2e from fugitive emissions. Despite these figures, Apa has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, nor do they disclose any Scope 3 emissions data. The company does not inherit emissions data from a parent organization, indicating that their reported figures are solely their own. Overall, while Apa has made strides in reducing emissions over the years, the absence of formal reduction targets suggests a need for more structured climate action moving forward.
