Kuwait Oil Company Ltd.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Kuwait Petroleum Corporation

Kuwait Oil Company Ltd. (KOC), headquartered in Kuwait (KW), currently does not have publicly available carbon emissions data for the most recent year. As a current subsidiary, KOC's emissions data is cascaded from its parent organization, but specific figures are not disclosed. In terms of climate commitments, KOC has not outlined any specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it participate in recognised frameworks such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). The absence of documented climate pledges or reduction strategies indicates a need for further development in their sustainability efforts. As the oil and gas industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding carbon emissions, KOC's lack of publicly available data and defined climate commitments may impact its reputation and operational sustainability in the long term.
