据5月13日Trend网站报道,国际能源署(IEA)执行主任法提赫·比罗尔(Fatih Birol)在其文章《Trend reports》中表示,到2030年,要将油气行业温室气体排放量减少60%,需要前期投入约6000亿美元。
他指出,“仅石油和天然气业务的排放量就占全球总量的相当大一部分。从地下开采石油和天然气,对其进行加工并将其运送到消费者手中,几乎占全球能源相关排放量的1%——这比美国产生的所有排放量还要多,是整个欧盟排放量的两倍。最新报告显示,从现在到2030年,石油和天然气行业如何将这些排放量减少60%。这将需要大约6000亿美元的前期支出,但这远低于该行业去年因创纪录的高能源价格而积累的数万亿美元。到目前为止,那些宣布计划减少其业务排放的石油和天然气公司,实际上只占世界产量的不到一半”。
比罗尔表示,许多承诺都是模糊的,或者缺乏明确的实现战略,特别是在从现在到2030年的关键时期,需要更雄心勃勃的目标、具体的计划和强有力的问责制,以实现石油和天然气行业的显著减排。
他强调,“该行业可以而且应该将其中的一些利润进行再投资,以帮助世界实现净零排放,并实现将全球气温限制在1.5摄氏度以内的目标。如今的石油和天然气行业拥有技术、资源和专业知识,能够以相对较低的成本大幅减少其运营过程中的排放”。

IEA's Birol talks spending needed to cut GHG emissions in global oil&gas industry
Upfront spending of around $600 billion is required to reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the oil and gas industry by 60 percent until 2030, Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency (IEA) said in his article, Trend reports.
"Emissions from oil and gas operations alone account for a considerable chunk of the global total. Taking oil and gas out of the ground, processing it and delivering it to consumers accounts for almost 1 percent of global energy-related emissions – that’s more than all the emissions produced by the United States or twice the emissions of the entire European Union. Our latest report shows how the oil and gas industry can reduce these emissions by 60 percent between now and 2030. This would require upfront spending of around $600 billion – much less than the trillions of dollars the industry accrued last year off the back of record high energy prices," he said.
According to the executive director, those oil and gas companies that have so far announced plans to reduce emissions from their operations, in fact, account for less than half of world production.
And many of the commitments made are vague or lack clear strategies to achieve them, especially for the crucial period between now and 2030, Birol said, noting that more ambitious targets, concrete plans and strong accountability are needed to achieve significant reductions in the oil and gas industry and beyond.
"The industry can and should reinvest some of those profits to help the world reach net zero emissions and keep the goal of limiting global temperatures to 1.5 °C within sight. The oil and gas industry today has the technologies, resources and expertise to cut emissions from its operations dramatically – and at relatively little cost," he added.
