In 2023, Ranger Oil Corporation reported a greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity of approximately 43,000 kg CO2e per barrel of oil equivalent for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions in its Canadian segment. This figure reflects a slight decrease from 47,000 kg CO2e per barrel in 2022 and 57,000 kg CO2e per barrel in 2021, indicating a trend towards reduced emissions intensity over the past few years. The company’s emissions data is cascaded from its parent company, Baytex Energy Corp., which provides the GHG emissions intensity metrics. Notably, Ranger Oil Corporation has not disclosed specific Scope 3 emissions data or set formal reduction targets under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. Despite the absence of explicit reduction commitments, the company is part of an industry that is increasingly focused on sustainability and reducing carbon footprints. Ranger Oil Corporation's ongoing efforts to lower emissions intensity align with broader industry trends aimed at mitigating climate change impacts.
