Enquest's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Enquest reported carbon emissions of approximately 618,587,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 sources in Great Britain. This figure reflects their direct emissions from operations, which include fugitive emissions and stationary combustion. The company has also disclosed emissions data for Scope 2 and Scope 3, with Scope 2 emissions at about 211,100 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions primarily from waste generated in operations, amounting to approximately 450,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, Enquest's total emissions were around 739,277,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2 combined, with Scope 1 emissions contributing significantly to this total. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of their climate commitments, indicating a need for further development in their sustainability strategy. Overall, while Enquest has made strides in reporting their emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests that they may be in the early stages of addressing their climate impact comprehensively.
