Ovintiv's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Ovintiv, headquartered in the US, reported total carbon emissions of approximately 3,307,430,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 351,883,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2. This reflects a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions from 3,392,284,000 kg CO2e in 2022, while Scope 2 emissions also saw a minor increase from 346,434,000 kg CO2e in the previous year. Ovintiv has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges, which may limit its accountability in addressing climate change. The reported GHG intensity for Scope 1 and 2 combined is about 13,200 kg CO2e per Mboe, while Scope 2 alone has a GHG intensity of approximately 1,300 kg CO2e per Mboe. These figures highlight the company's operational emissions intensity, which is crucial for understanding its environmental impact. Overall, while Ovintiv has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the absence of reduction targets and Scope 3 data suggests that further commitments may be necessary to align with industry standards and climate goals.
