Eog Resources's reported carbon emissions
In 2023, Eog Resources, headquartered in the US, reported significant carbon emissions, with Scope 1 emissions totalling approximately 5,697,000,000 kg CO2e and Scope 2 emissions at about 393,853,000 kg CO2e. This data highlights the company's operational impact on climate change, particularly in the fossil fuel sector. For the year 2022, Eog Resources disclosed a total of 5,100,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 emissions, alongside 400,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions, and a substantial 110,300,000,000 kg CO2e attributed to Scope 3 emissions from the use of sold products. This indicates a considerable carbon footprint, primarily driven by the combustion of fossil fuels. Eog Resources has not publicly committed to specific reduction targets or initiatives, as indicated by the absence of documented reduction targets or SBTi (Science Based Targets initiative) commitments. The company’s emissions data is not cascaded from any parent organisation, ensuring that the reported figures are solely reflective of Eog Resources' own operations. Overall, while Eog Resources has made strides in transparency regarding its emissions, the lack of defined reduction strategies raises questions about its long-term climate commitments in an industry increasingly scrutinised for its environmental impact.
