Vital Energy's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Vital Energy reported total carbon emissions of approximately 27,348,482,000 kg CO2e, with emissions distributed across various scopes: 663,046,000 kg CO2e from Scope 1, 226,974,000 kg CO2e from Scope 2, and 27,348,482,000 kg CO2e from Scope 3. This represents a notable increase in Scope 3 emissions compared to previous years, indicating a growing impact from their supply chain and product use. In 2022, the company recorded total emissions of about 15,524,955,000 kg CO2e, with Scope 1 emissions at 452,106,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at 70,574,000 kg CO2e. The trend shows a significant rise in emissions over the years, particularly in Scope 3, which reached approximately 14,719,384,000 kg CO2e in 2021. Despite these figures, Vital Energy has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing their carbon footprint. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments to align with industry standards and expectations for sustainability. Overall, while Vital Energy's emissions data highlights the scale of their carbon impact, the lack of clear reduction targets raises questions about their long-term climate strategy and commitment to mitigating climate change.
