In 2023, Tidewater reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 1,074,336,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and about 3,364,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based). This marks a notable increase from 2022, where emissions were around 860,594,000 kg CO2e for Scope 1 and approximately 2,779,000 kg CO2e for Scope 2 (market-based). Tidewater has not disclosed any Scope 3 emissions data, indicating a potential area for future reporting and improvement. The company has not set specific reduction targets or initiatives as part of its climate commitments, which may limit its ability to demonstrate progress in reducing its carbon footprint. Overall, while Tidewater's emissions figures reflect its operational scale, the absence of defined reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate action and transparency in its sustainability efforts.
