This report determines the company’s whole flaring impact around the world by attributing flaring to individual companies for both their operated and non-operated assets. The analysis shows that just 10 large international oil companies (IOCs)—BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, Eni, Equinor, ExxonMobil, Occidental Petroleum, Repsol, Shell, and TotalEnergies—are responsible for 7% of global flaring, based on their ownership percentages in flaring assets.
