Core Laboratories N.V., headquartered in the Netherlands (NL), currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for the most recent year. The company is identified as a merged entity, inheriting emissions data from its parent organization, Core Laboratories Inc. However, no absolute emissions figures or reduction targets have been disclosed. As part of its climate commitments, Core Laboratories N.V. has not specified any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other significant climate pledges. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. Given the lack of specific emissions data and targets, it is essential for Core Laboratories N.V. to develop and communicate a clear climate action plan to align with industry standards and expectations. This would not only enhance transparency but also demonstrate a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint in line with global climate goals.
