  • CCUS

ExxonMobil starts up second Louisiana CCS operation

ExxonMobil has begun transporting and storing captured CO₂ at its Gillis, Louisiana project, its second active commercial CCS operation in the state. The project is expected to remove up to 1.2 Mt of CO₂ per year, with the company’s two Louisiana projects together accounting for up to 3.2 Mt/year of contracted CO₂.

  • Carbon Intensity

How Aramco created commercial value utilizing novel approaches to carbon accounting

Aramco has demonstrated how robust carbon accounting and verified carbon credits can be integrated into physical energy transactions. Its first commercial sale of a verified carbon-offset crude cargo shows how credible carbon intensity methodologies could support greater transparency and commercial differentiation.
  • Methane emissions

How Norway’s 1971 petroleum principles shaped Equinor’s low-emission production on the Norwegian continental shelf 

Norway’s long-standing approach to limiting gas flaring has helped establish a framework focused on resource utilisation and lower-emission production. Equinor’s experience demonstrates how minimizing flaring and maximizing resource utilization have contributed to effective methane management and the efficient use of energy.
