Oil and gas operations account for 15% of total energy-related Scope 1 and 2 emissions globally. To meet the IEA’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario, Scope 1 and 2 emissions must be reduced by 50% by 2030. Producers have the means to achieve this target, including reducing methane emissions, the elimination of non-emergency flaring, the clean electrification of upstream facilities and equipping oil and gas processes with CCUS technologies. However, an estimated US $600 billion in investment will be needed to deliver the 50% reduction in the timeframe required. In addition, collaboration between sectors will be critical when optimising supply chain operations, allowing for greater efficiencies and increased profitability.
Attendee insights:
Understand what is needed to decarbonise upstream, midstream and downstream operations, addressing the necessary requirements related to Scope 1 and 2 emissions and identifying the effective levers for decarbonisation.
