Knot Offshore Partners has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The company does not appear to have inherited emissions data from a parent organization, as all reported figures are directly sourced from Knot Offshore Partners LP.
