伍德赛德能源公司已成为在阿拉伯联合酋长国举行的联合国气候变化大会第 28 届缔约方大会上推出的《石油和天然气脱碳宪章》的签署方。

该自愿宪章由 COP28 主席 Sultan Al Jaber 博士发起，并由 50 家全球石油和天然气公司签署，其中包括一些首次采用 2050 年净零排放目标的公司。伍德赛德是该宪章唯一的澳大利亚签署国。

Woodside 首席执行官梅格·奥尼尔 (Meg O'eill) 表示，签署该宪章强化了该公司对减少碳和甲烷排放以及投资于客户所需的产品和服务的现有承诺。

该宪章的签署国承诺到 2050 年或之前实现净零运营，到 2030 年结束常规燃烧，并使上游甲烷排放接近于零。

“签署方还同意致力于在许多领域采取行业最佳实践和关键行动，包括：减排；投资可再生能源和低碳燃料；通过加强温室气体排放的测量、报告和核查来提高透明度。

“宪章致力于加快气候行动并在整个石油和天然气行业实现大规模影响，包括通过与政府合作支持加速净零排放的国家政策；与技术和金融部门合作，推动整体成果；与客户和其他能源密集型行业合作减少排放。

“Goodside 已承诺到 2025 年将我们的范围 1 和范围 2 净资产排放量减少 15%，到 2030 年减少 30%，并希望到 2050 年或更早实现净零排放。

“历史上，我们还非常注重最大限度地减少甲烷排放。这意味着到 2022 年，我们的甲烷排放量约为产量的 0.1%，远低于石油和天然气气候

倡议 (OGCI) 的甲烷强度目标低于 0.2%。

“根据伍德赛德于 2022 年加入的 OGCI 零甲烷排放倡议，我们致力于到 2030 年实现运营资产接近零的甲烷排放。

“COP28 宪章认识到，需要采取差异化的能源转型方法，以利用整个石油和天然气行业的能力多样性。通过签署这一重要的行业宪章，伍德赛德重申了其与同行合作采取行动应对气候变化的坚定承诺，”她说。

根据 COP28 的数据，宪章签署公司占全球石油产量的 40% 以上。

Woodside Energy has become a signatory to the Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter launched at the United Nations Climate Change Conference COP28 in the United Arab Emirates.

The voluntary Charter was launched by COP28 President Dr Sultan Al Jaber and signed by 50 global oil and gas companies, including some that have adopted net zero 2050 targets for the first time. Woodside is the only Australian signatory to the Charter.

Woodside CEO Meg O’Neill said signing the Charter reinforced the company’s existing commitments to reducing carbon and methane emissions and to investing in the products and services customers need as they do the same.

“Signatories to the Charter have committed to net zero operations by or before 2050, ending routine flaring by 2030, and near-zero upstream methane emissions.

“The signatories have also agreed to work towards industry best practices and key actions in a number of areas, including: emissions reduction; investing in renewables and low-carbon fuels; and improved transparency through enhanced measurement, reporting and verification of greenhouse gas emissions.

“The Charter is dedicated to speeding up climate action and achieving high-scale impact across the oil and gas sectors, including through cooperation with governments to support national policies that accelerate net zero delivery; partnering with the technology and financial sectors to drive holistic outcomes; and engaging with customers and other energy-intensive industries to reduce emissions.

“Woodside is already committed to reducing our net equity Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 15% by 2025 and 30% by 2030, and an aspiration for net zero by 2050 or sooner.

“We have also had a strong historic focus on minimising methane emissions. This meant that in 2022, our methane emissions were around 0.1% of our production by volume, well below the Oil and Gas Climate

Initiative (OGCI)’s methane intensity target of below 0.2%.

“Under the OGCI’s Aiming for Zero Methane Emissions Initiative which Woodside joined in 2022, we are committed to striving for near-zero methane emissions on operated assets by 2030.

“The COP28 Charter recognises that a differentiated approach to the energy transition is required to take advantage of the diversity of capabilities across the oil and gas sector. By signing this important industry Charter, Woodside is reaffirming its strong commitment to working with our peers to take action on climate change,” she said.

According to COP28, the Charter signatory companies represent more than 40% of global oil production.
