This marks a notable increase in emissions compared to previous years, reflecting the complexities of managing carbon outputs in the petroleum sector. The company's emissions have fluctuated over the years, with total emissions recorded at about 1,730,694,000 kg CO2e in 2013, peaking at approximately 2,027,367,000 kg CO2e in 2014. In 2015, emissions were reported at about 1,944,165,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions contributing significantly at 1,944,165,000 kg CO2e. By 2020, emissions had decreased to approximately 1,836,000,000 kg CO2e, but the trend reversed in 2021 and 2022, with emissions rising again. Despite these figures, Karachaganak Petroleum has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context, particularly as global pressure mounts for energy companies to transition towards more sustainable practices. Overall, while Karachaganak Petroleum's emissions data highlights the challenges faced in reducing carbon outputs, the lack of clear reduction targets indicates an area for potential improvement in their climate strategy.
