This data reflects a significant operational footprint, with emissions intensity metrics indicating 30,080 kg CO2e per barrel of oil equivalent (BOE) for Scope 1 and 2 combined. For the preceding year, 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 1,981,077,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 1,123,252,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 857,825,000 kg CO2e. This demonstrates a slight increase in emissions from 2021, where total emissions were approximately 2,068,268,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 at 1,358,082,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 at 710,186,000 kg CO2e. Despite these figures, SilverBow Resources has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments. The company is a current subsidiary of Crescent Energy Company, which may influence its climate strategy and reporting. However, no specific SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) reduction targets or climate pledges have been identified in the available data. Overall, while SilverBow Resources has substantial emissions, the absence of defined reduction targets suggests a need for enhanced climate action and transparency in its sustainability efforts.
