This data reflects a comprehensive approach to emissions reporting, including all relevant scopes. TGS has set ambitious climate commitments, aiming for net zero emissions in both Scope 1 and Scope 2 by 2030. This commitment was established in 2021, prior to the acquisition of Magseis Fairfield in 2023 and the anticipated acquisition of PGS in 2024. The company is actively working towards these targets, demonstrating a proactive stance in addressing its carbon footprint. The emissions data for previous years shows a trend of increasing Scope 3 emissions, with 119,870,000 kg CO2e in 2022 and 133,488,000 kg CO2e in 2021, while Scope 2 emissions have remained relatively stable, around 9,738,000 kg CO2e in 2023 and 9,776,000 kg CO2e in 2022. Notably, TGS did not report Scope 1 emissions for 2022 and 2021, indicating a focus on improving data transparency and completeness in recent years. TGS's climate strategy is supported by its parent company, TGS ASA, which provides oversight and guidance on sustainability initiatives. The company's commitment to reducing its carbon emissions aligns with industry standards and reflects a growing recognition of the importance of corporate responsibility in combating climate change.
