In 2023, Eog Resources reported total carbon emissions of approximately 5700000000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 400000000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and a significant 118000000000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This indicates a continued reliance on fossil fuel production, with Scope 3 emissions primarily arising from the use of sold products. Over the years, Eog Resources has shown fluctuations in its emissions. For instance, in 2022, the company recorded approximately 5100000000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 emissions and 400000000 kg CO2e in Scope 2, alongside an enormous 110300000000 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions. The trend suggests a need for enhanced strategies to manage and reduce these emissions effectively. Despite the substantial emissions figures, Eog Resources has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or climate pledges. This lack of formal commitments may reflect broader industry challenges in addressing climate change while maintaining operational profitability. Eog Resources operates within a sector that is increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact, highlighting the importance of transparent climate strategies and commitments to reduce carbon footprints in line with global climate goals.
