Gulf Marine Services's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Gulf Marine Services (GMS), headquartered in the United Arab Emirates (AE), reported total carbon emissions of approximately 54,396,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 26,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and about 22,996,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a continued commitment to monitoring and managing their carbon footprint across all scopes of emissions. In 2022, GMS's emissions were approximately 51,860,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 28,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and about 26,205,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The company has shown a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions from 2022 to 2023, while Scope 2 emissions remained relatively stable. Over the years, GMS has reported emissions of approximately 47,247,000 kg CO2e in 2021, 42,893,000 kg CO2e in 2020, and 43,108,000 kg CO2e in 2019 for Scope 1. Their Scope 2 emissions have decreased from about 580,000 kg CO2e in 2019 to 26,000 kg CO2e in 2023, indicating a significant reduction in purchased electricity emissions. Despite these figures, GMS has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, such as those outlined by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The absence of documented reduction targets suggests that while GMS is actively tracking its emissions, it may not yet have formalised a comprehensive strategy for significant emissions reductions in line with global climate goals. Overall, GMS's emissions data highlights the importance of ongoing efforts in carbon management and the need for clear commitments to reduce their environmental impact in the future.
