Methane emissions Methane abatement is critical to the energy transition, given its high contribution to global warming compared with that of carbon dioxide. We recognize the role of the oil and gas industry in identifying and eliminating emissions and have set a target to achieve near zero methane emissions from our oil and gas operations by 2030. We have achieved a 20% reduction in our upstream methane emissions in 2023 compared with 2022 through: Effective use of flare recovery systems during turn-rounds in gas processing plants Replacement of onsite power generation with imported grid power therefore, reducing fuel combustion Operational enhancements to rotating equipment, leading to greater energy efficiency Conducting leak detection and repair (LDAR) surveys and repair interventions Enhancing the accuracy of methane emissions data based on actual measurement Our commitment to minimize methane emissions extends beyond our active operations. We have also implemented a well plug and abandonment policy to remove the potential for fugitive emissions from inactive wells. We are deploying pioneering technologies to enhance monitoring and drive further performance improvements. These include piloting satellite monitoring, aerial and robotic drone-mounted sensors, and the use of solar leak detection and repair systems which utilize infrared cameras and flame ionization detection to quantify leaks. As a signatory to the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership (OGMP) 2.0, we are continuously enhancing the quantification and accuracy of our reported methane emissions, following industry best practice. In 2023, ADNOC received its second OGMP Gold Standard Pathway award, for demonstrating an explicit and credible path to reporting all material assets to measure methane emissions, in line with the OGMP 2.0 reporting framework. In 2022, we set a target to maintain our upstream methane intensity at below 0.15% by 2025, well below the OGMP ambition of 0.2%. 1 Upstream methane emissions have undergone external limited assurance in accordance with ISAE 3000.
