The company has disclosed emissions across all three scopes: Scope 1 emissions primarily arise from direct operations, Scope 2 emissions are linked to purchased electricity, and Scope 3 emissions include indirect impacts from investments and the use of sold products. Notably, Taqa's Scope 3 emissions in 2023 were approximately 21,350,000,000 kg CO2e, reflecting a decrease from 24,260,000,000 kg CO2e in 2021. Despite these reductions, Taqa has not set specific reduction targets or climate pledges as part of their sustainability strategy. The company continues to focus on improving its emissions intensity, with a GHG intensity of about 0.0203 kg CO2e per MBOE for oil and gas production in 2023. Taqa's commitment to reducing its carbon footprint aligns with industry standards, although further initiatives and targets would enhance its climate action profile.
