Afren PLC, headquartered in Great Britain, has reported carbon emissions data primarily from 2010 to 2014, with the most recent available data from 2014 indicating an intensity ratio of approximately 0.45 tonnes CO2e per 1,000 tonnes of hydrocarbon produced. This figure reflects the company's operational efficiency in terms of emissions relative to production output. In 2013, the intensity ratio was about 0.2 tonnes CO2e, while in 2012 it was approximately 0.3 tonnes CO2e, and in 2011, it stood at around 0.4 tonnes CO2e. The data shows a fluctuation in emissions intensity over these years, but specific absolute emissions figures for Scope 1, 2, or 3 are not disclosed. Afren PLC has not established any formal reduction targets or climate pledges, nor does it appear to have cascaded any emissions data from a parent company or related organization. The absence of specific climate commitments or reduction initiatives suggests that the company may be in the early stages of developing a comprehensive climate strategy. Overall, while Afren PLC has demonstrated some awareness of its carbon emissions through intensity ratios, it lacks detailed emissions data and formal commitments to reduce its carbon footprint.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
Afren PLC is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
