This data highlights the company's operational impact on greenhouse gas emissions, particularly in the mineral fuels and oils sector. For the year 2022, Eog Resources disclosed global emissions of approximately 5,100,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 400,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and a substantial 110,300,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions, specifically from the use of sold products. This indicates a comprehensive approach to tracking emissions across all scopes, although no specific reduction targets or initiatives have been documented. Eog Resources has not reported any specific science-based targets or climate pledges, nor have they outlined any reduction initiatives. The absence of such commitments may reflect a broader industry context where many companies are still developing their climate strategies. Overall, while Eog Resources has provided detailed emissions data, the lack of reduction targets or initiatives suggests an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and align with industry standards for sustainability.
