Oil And Natural Gas's reported carbon emissions

In 2024, Oil and Natural Gas (ONGC) reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 8,961,199,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1, 402,000,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, and 19,350,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a continued commitment to transparency in emissions reporting across all scopes. In 2023, ONGC's emissions were approximately 8,545,142,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 351,444,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, resulting in a combined total of about 8,896,586,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 2. The previous year, 2022, saw emissions of approximately 8,920,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 210,000,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2, with Scope 3 emissions at about 24,300 kg CO2e. Despite these substantial figures, ONGC has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented climate pledges or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments suggests a need for further action in aligning with global climate goals. Overall, while ONGC's emissions data illustrates the scale of their operations, the lack of defined reduction strategies highlights an opportunity for the company to enhance its climate commitments and contribute more effectively to global sustainability efforts.
