Insights into Hess's Greenhouse Gas Emissions Pathways
As of 2024, Hess has set greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reduction targets that cover its operational emissions (Scope 1 and 2), but not its value chain emissions (Scope 3). This means its reduction efforts currently focus on direct and purchased energy emissions. a b
Does Hess have a target to reduce the emissions from its operations?
As of 2024, Hess has set a target to reduce its operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, specifically those from Scope 1 and Scope 2 sources. a b
Hess's most ambitious operational target is to reduce these emissions by 55.81% by 2025, compared to a baseline of 0.004 Metric Tonnes of CH4 (mtCH4) per Metric Tonne (mt) of Natural Gas Sold in 2017. a b
Hess has already surpassed its operational emissions reduction target, with 2024 levels falling below the 2025 value, achieving its climate goal ahead of schedule. a b
