Meg Energy's reported carbon emissions

In 2022, Meg Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 2,368,081,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, which includes direct emissions from their operations, and about 383,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, which covers indirect emissions from purchased electricity. Notably, there is no reported data for Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass emissions from the entire value chain. The company has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. However, they have provided emissions intensity metrics, such as a Bitumen GHG Emissions Intensity of approximately 9.22 kg CO2e per barrel in 2022, which reflects their operational efficiency in terms of greenhouse gas emissions. Meg Energy's headquarters is located in Canada, and while they have not committed to specific science-based targets or climate pledges, their ongoing reporting indicates a focus on transparency regarding their emissions data. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that further commitments may be necessary to align with industry standards for climate action.
