In 2023, Teekay Tankers reported total carbon emissions of approximately 1,176,254,000 kg CO2e. This figure reflects a slight increase from 2022, when emissions were about 1,166,344,000 kg CO2e. Over the past few years, the company has seen a significant reduction in emissions from 2021, which recorded approximately 4,779,487,000 kg CO2e. Teekay Tankers has not disclosed specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data, nor have they set formal reduction targets through initiatives such as the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi). The company has not reported any climate pledges or documented reduction initiatives, indicating a potential area for improvement in their climate strategy. The Energy Efficiency Operational Indicators (EEOI) for their Aframax and Suezmax tankers are reported at 0.00956 and 0.00302 respectively, showcasing their commitment to operational efficiency, although these figures do not directly translate to overall emissions reductions. Overall, while Teekay Tankers has made strides in reducing emissions over the years, the lack of formal targets and detailed scope emissions data suggests that further commitments and transparency could enhance their climate action efforts.

Teekay Tankers has not publicly committed to specific 2030 or 2050 climate goals through the major frameworks we track. Companies often set interim 2030 targets and long-term 2050 net-zero goals to demonstrate measurable progress toward decarbonization.
