The company's Scope 1 emissions included significant fugitive emissions, totalling about 140,462.63 kg CO2e. For 2023, specific emissions data has not been disclosed, but the company continues to focus on its operational efficiency in the mineral fuels sector, with an extraction intensity ratio of about 44,700 kg CO2e per barrel of oil equivalent (Boe). EnQuest has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of documented reduction targets indicates a need for further commitment to climate action within the industry context. Overall, while EnQuest has made strides in reporting its emissions, the lack of clear reduction strategies highlights an area for potential improvement in its climate commitments.
