In 2023, OMV Petrom reported total carbon emissions of approximately 95,600,000,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across all three scopes: 3,400,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), 60,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2), and 95,600,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3). This represents a significant portion of their overall emissions profile, with Scope 3 emissions being the largest contributor. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 23,030,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 3), 3,930,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 1), and 88,000,000 kg CO2e (Scope 2). The data indicates a slight reduction in Scope 1 emissions from 2022 to 2023, while Scope 3 emissions remained substantially high. OMV Petrom's emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, OMV Aktiengesellschaft, reflecting a corporate family relationship. However, the company has not set specific reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, indicating a potential area for future commitment. Overall, OMV Petrom's emissions profile highlights the challenges faced by the oil and gas sector in managing carbon outputs, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which often encompass the majority of a company's carbon footprint.
