Preem's reported carbon emissions

In 2023, Preem reported total carbon emissions of approximately 46,393,340,000 kg CO2e, comprising 2,056,000,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 14,700,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 46,393,340,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3 emissions. This reflects a slight increase in Scope 1 emissions compared to 2022, where they were about 1,971,000,000 kg CO2e. Over the years, Preem's emissions have shown variability. For instance, in 2021, the company recorded total emissions of approximately 51,981,000,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 2,123,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 3 emissions at 46,400,740,000 kg CO2e. The company has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. Preem's emissions profile indicates a significant reliance on Scope 3 emissions, which are often the largest component for companies in the oil and gas sector. The absence of defined reduction targets suggests that while Preem is aware of its carbon footprint, it may need to enhance its climate strategy to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability.
