In 2023, Diamond Offshore reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 56,078,000 kg CO2e from purchased goods and services, alongside 5,550,000 kg CO2e from business travel and 3,388,000 kg CO2e from upstream transportation and distribution. The company also recorded emissions of about 798,000 kg CO2e under Scope 2. Notably, no Scope 1 emissions data was disclosed for this year. In 2022, Diamond Offshore's emissions were primarily from Scope 1, with a total of approximately 333,761,000 kg CO2e, and Scope 2 emissions amounting to about 941,000 kg CO2e. This indicates a substantial reliance on direct emissions sources. Despite the high emissions figures, Diamond Offshore has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. The company continues to operate within the context of the offshore drilling industry, which faces increasing scrutiny regarding environmental impact and climate commitments.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Diamond Offshore is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
