Contango Oil & Gas Company, headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year, as indicated by the absence of reported figures. The company is identified as a merged entity, inheriting its climate commitments and performance data from Crescent Energy Company, which is at cascade level 1. As of now, Contango Oil & Gas Company has not established any documented reduction targets or specific climate pledges. The lack of emissions data and formal commitments suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of developing its climate strategy. In the context of the oil and gas industry, companies are increasingly expected to set science-based targets and report on their emissions across all scopes (Scope 1, 2, and 3). However, without specific data or commitments from Contango Oil & Gas Company, it remains unclear how they plan to address their carbon footprint or align with industry standards for climate action.
