In 2023, Petron Corporation, headquartered in the Philippines, reported significant carbon emissions data, although specific figures for total emissions were not disclosed. The company has provided GHG intensity metrics for its operations, with a Scope 1 GHG intensity of approximately 1.1765 kg CO2e per barrel for its refinery and terminal operations. This figure reflects the emissions associated with the direct combustion of fossil fuels and other processes within the company. Looking back at 2019, Petron's emissions included about 3,502,169,930 kg CO2e from Scope 1 and approximately 73,624,430 kg CO2e from Scope 2, indicating a substantial carbon footprint primarily from direct operations and energy consumption. However, there is no available data for Scope 3 emissions, which typically encompass indirect emissions from the value chain. Despite the lack of specific reduction targets or commitments, Petron Corporation has not reported any initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This absence of formal commitments suggests that while the company is aware of its emissions profile, it may not yet have established clear pathways for significant reductions. Overall, Petron Corporation's emissions data highlights the need for enhanced transparency and commitment to climate action, particularly in the context of the global push for sustainability in the energy sector.
