In 2023, Petrotal reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1.97 billion kg CO2e. This figure includes Scope 1 emissions of about 33.3 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions of approximately 21,180 kg CO2e, and a significant contribution from Scope 3 emissions, which total around 1.93 billion kg CO2e. Comparatively, in 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 1.78 billion kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at approximately 30.1 million kg CO2e, Scope 2 emissions around 12,390 kg CO2e, and Scope 3 emissions reaching about 1.75 billion kg CO2e. This indicates an increase in total emissions from 2022 to 2023. Petrotal has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The absence of SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets suggests that the company has yet to formalise a structured approach to emissions reduction. The emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, and all figures are directly reported by PetroTal Corp. The company continues to operate within the oil and gas sector, which is under increasing scrutiny for its environmental impact, highlighting the importance of transparent emissions reporting and climate action commitments.
