Pioneer's reported carbon emissions
In 2020, Pioneer reported significant carbon emissions totalling approximately 3,407,000,000 kg CO2e across all scopes. This includes about 1,074,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1 emissions, which are direct emissions from owned or controlled sources. Scope 2 emissions, representing indirect emissions from the generation of purchased electricity, steam, heating, and cooling, accounted for approximately 666,000,000 kg CO2e. The most substantial contribution came from Scope 3 emissions, which totalled around 1,674,000,000 kg CO2e, encompassing a wide range of activities including business travel, employee commuting, and the use of sold products. Currently, Pioneer has not disclosed any specific reduction targets or initiatives under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. This lack of defined targets suggests that while the company acknowledges its carbon footprint, it may not yet have formalised a comprehensive strategy for emissions reduction. As the industry increasingly prioritises sustainability, it will be crucial for Pioneer to establish clear commitments to mitigate its environmental impact.
