Petron Corporation's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Petron Corporation, headquartered in the Philippines, reported a GHG intensity of approximately 1.1765 kg CO2e per barrel for Scope 1 emissions related to its refinery and terminal operations. This figure reflects the company's ongoing efforts to monitor and manage its carbon footprint, although specific total emissions data for 2023 is not disclosed. In 2022, the GHG intensity for Scope 1 emissions was slightly lower at about 1.1606 kg CO2e per barrel, indicating a modest improvement in emissions efficiency. In 2021, the GHG intensity was higher at approximately 1.2878 kg CO2e per barrel, suggesting a trend towards reducing emissions intensity over the years. For 2019, Petron disclosed total emissions of approximately 3,502,169,930 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and 73,624,430 kg CO2e for Scope 2, demonstrating significant emissions from its operations. However, there is no available data on Scope 3 emissions. Despite these figures, Petron has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, nor does it appear to have set science-based targets (SBTi) for emissions reduction. The absence of documented reduction initiatives suggests that while the company is tracking its emissions, it may need to enhance its climate commitments to align with industry standards and global climate goals.
