In 2023, Pan Ocean reported total carbon emissions of approximately 4,451,253,000 kg CO2e, with significant contributions from Scope 1 and Scope 3 emissions. Specifically, Scope 1 emissions were about 2,678,713,000 kg CO2e, primarily from mobile combustion, while Scope 3 emissions totalled approximately 4,511,253,000 kg CO2e, with upstream leased assets and upstream transportation and distribution being the largest contributors. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of around 3,739,975,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 2,669,080,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at about 3,738,975,000 kg CO2e. The trend indicates a substantial carbon footprint, particularly in Scope 3 emissions, which often represent indirect emissions from the supply chain. Despite the high emissions figures, Pan Ocean has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the organisation. As the company continues to operate in a carbon-intensive industry, establishing clear and actionable climate goals will be crucial for aligning with global sustainability efforts.
