Despite these figures, NuStar Energy has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The company has not provided data on Scope 3 emissions, which encompass indirect emissions from the value chain. As a result, their climate commitments remain unclear, and there are no documented pledges or targets to guide their future emissions reduction efforts. NuStar Energy operates within the mineral fuels and oils sector, where emissions intensity is a critical metric. The company’s emissions intensity for Scope 1 and Scope 2 combined is approximately 0.00037068 kg CO2e per barrel of oil equivalent (BOE) for 2022. As the industry faces increasing scrutiny regarding climate impact, NuStar Energy's future commitments and strategies will be essential for aligning with global climate goals.
