Achieve Net Zero
We advance responsible and efficient energy production in our host countries.
We are decarbonising our assets and have committed to achieving Net Zero Scope 1 and 2 GHG net equity emissions by 2030.
We have commenced a nature-based carbon offset initiative in Ghana with an investment of more than $90 million over 10 years to generate at least 600,000 tonnes per year in carbon offsets.
Respect the environment
We strive to avoid negative impacts on biodiversity during all phases of our activities.
We have adopted a No Net Loss ambition by 2030, supporting the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework, committing us to assuring that any loss occurring in our operations is minimised, restored and balanced by ecologically equivalent gains onsite or offsite.
We practise responsible decommissioning, so that, as we exit assets in our host countries, we aim to leave oil field sites with no negative impacts on biodiversity or the environment in general.
We conserve water and minimise waste throughout our operations.
In Ghana, we undertake marine mammal and tetrapod observation by trained observers to watch and record marine mammal sightings within the Jubilee and TEN fields as part of our overall protocol to avoid harm to marine mammals and turtles.
