In 2022, International Petroleum reported total carbon emissions of approximately 796,081,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 119,343,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 5,893,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The Scope 1 emissions primarily stemmed from stationary combustion (about 667,725,000 kg CO2e) and fugitive emissions (approximately 126,615,000 kg CO2e). The company has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, nor does it appear to have cascaded data from a parent organisation. In previous years, emissions were also significant, with Scope 1 emissions of about 730,512,000 kg CO2e in 2021 and 678,512,000 kg CO2e in 2020. The company has not established any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or other formal climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment and improvement in its sustainability strategy. Overall, while International Petroleum has made strides in emissions reporting, the absence of specific reduction targets highlights the need for enhanced climate action and accountability in line with industry standards.
