Oil And Natural Gas's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Oil and Natural Gas (ONGC) reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions totalling approximately 8,545,142,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 351,444,000,000 kg CO2e. The company has also disclosed Scope 3 emissions, which amounted to approximately 19,350,000,000 kg CO2e. In 2022, ONGC's emissions were approximately 8,920,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 210,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 24,300,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3. The trend indicates a substantial carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 1 emissions, which are primarily direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Despite the high emissions figures, ONGC has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges, indicating a lack of formal commitments to reduce their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that the company may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and global climate goals. Overall, ONGC's emissions data highlights the need for a more robust approach to carbon management and climate commitments in the face of increasing scrutiny on environmental impacts within the oil and gas sector.
