Why it matters Material topics • Climate Change and GHG Emissions 2025 performance • 7.0kg CO 2 e/boe upstream GHG intensity, amongst the lowest carbon-intensity oil and gas producers • 0.05% upstream methane intensity • 0.9 million tCO 2 e reduction of total Scope 1 • 5.1 million tCO 2 e of avoided emissions enabled through clean power imports • $22 million (AED 81 million) in savings realized from emission reduction initiatives • 65GW of combined renewable energy capacity through our shareholding in Masdar Managing and reducing the emissions associated with our operations is both a responsibility and a business imperative, and these goals are embedded in ADNOC's long-term strategy, capital planning and performance accountability frameworks. In addition, climate action remains central to long-term value creation. The global context on climate action has shifted. Geopolitical pressures, economic headwinds and diverging policy priorities have contributed to a slowdown in climate momentum across parts of the industry. ADNOC has continued to invest in decarbonization and delivered tangible emissions reductions. This reflects a deliberate focus on what is within our control: operational decarbonization, near-term emissions performance and the long-term transformation of our energy portfolio. ADNOC's climate commitments are aligned with the UAE Net Zero by 2050 Strategic Initiative. Our decarbonization pathway is designed to support national priorities across emissions reduction, energy diversification and long-term economic sustainability. Operational decarbonization underpins ADNOC’s ability to deliver energy with a lower-carbon intensity and is one part of a broader approach to advancing a diversified lower-carbon energy portfolio that is central to ADNOC’s long-term strategy. Through strategic investments in low- carbon hydrogen and ammonia, lower-carbon intensity liquefied natural gas (LNG) through the Ruwais project and renewable energy through our shareholding in Masdar, which has reached 65 GW of capacity globally with a target of 100 GW by 2030, ADNOC is building the lower-carbon energy capabilities that underpin long-term competitiveness. Decarbonization is a core pillar of ADNOC’s 2030 Sustainability Strategy, backed by a $23 billion (AED 84 billion) capital investment in operational emissions reduction as well as strategic investments in Carbon Capture, Utilization and Storage (CCUS), low-carbon hydrogen and ammonia and renewable energy. Our approach to operational decarbonization emphasizes delivery over aspiration, with milestones and governance mechanisms to manage performance and track progress. ADNOC’s carbon management framework, which embeds decarbonization accountability across the ADNOC Group, governs these efforts. Our decarbonization initiatives include energy efficiency, elimination of routine flaring, and the electrification of onshore and offshore facilities with lower-carbon power sources, including solar and nuclear. These interventions address the most material sources of emissions across our operating assets while maintaining energy reliability and affordability. Digital technologies and predictive analytics that support energy optimization and predictive maintenance across our operating assets are increasingly integral to our emissions reduction efforts. We are also developing a centralized digital platform to support the management of our decarbonization program and the verification of our progress. Our approach SDGs Decarbonizing our operations ADNOC's approach to decarbonizing its operations follows a phased pathway, balancing near-term emissions reductions with the disciplined delivery of large-scale infrastructure investments. This pathway reflects a pragmatic approach to decarbonization: sequencing actions by cost, readiness and scale to deliver measurable progress across each phase. Our near-term target is a 25% reduction in operational GHG intensity by 2030, underpinning our longer-term Net Zero by 2045 ambition.

These actions delivered over 5 million tCO 2 e of cumulative emissions reductions, establishing the operational discipline required for the capital-intensive phases that follow. In this phase, the focus shifts to large-scale electrification and carbon capture. Electrification reduces reliance on onsite fuel combustion, driving durable reductions in Scope 1 emissions. CCUS projects enable material reductions from harder-to-abate sources. Together, these projects form the backbone of ADNOC’s medium-term decarbonization trajectory. Beyond 2028, we plan to increasingly integrate decarbonization into asset design, power sourcing and portfolio planning. A growing share of lower- carbon power in ADNOC’s energy mix is expected to support both emissions reduction and long-term carbon competitiveness as the Group expands production capacity. 8 * For illustrative purposes only ADNOC’s phased decarbonization pathway to meet our 2030 GHG intensity reduction target 8 51 ADNOC Sustainability Report 2025 50 ADVANCING NET ZERO KEEPING OUR PEOPLE SAFE EMPOWERING LIVES HOW WE OPERATE SUSTAINABILITY AT ADNOC ABOUT ADNOC PROTECTING NATURE AND BIODIVERSITY
