In 2023, Eog Resources reported significant carbon emissions, totalling approximately 118,000,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 3 emissions, alongside 5,700,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 1 and 400,000,000 kg CO2e in Scope 2 emissions. This data highlights the company's substantial carbon footprint, particularly in its upstream activities. Eog Resources has not disclosed specific reduction targets or initiatives aimed at decreasing its carbon emissions. The absence of documented reduction strategies suggests a need for enhanced climate commitments within the industry context, where many companies are increasingly adopting science-based targets to align with global climate goals. The company's emissions intensity rates indicate a focus on operational efficiency, yet the lack of clear reduction commitments may impact its long-term sustainability strategy. As the energy sector faces growing scrutiny over climate impacts, Eog Resources will need to consider establishing measurable targets to mitigate its environmental footprint effectively.
