据油价网2023年7月31日报道,阿联酋阿布扎比国家石油公司(ADNOC)周一表示,ADNOC将把其实现净零排放目标的时间从之前的2050年提前到2045年,成为同行中第一家承诺在2045年实现净零排放的石油公司。ADNOC生产阿联酋几乎所有石油。
ADNOC还承诺到2030年前实现甲烷零排放。
新净零排放目标出台之际,阿联酋正准备在今年晚些时候主办COP28气候峰会。COP28峰会的候任主席是ADNOC集团首席执行官苏丹·艾哈迈德·贾贝尔。
同样在7月31日,ADNOC报告了其去年的排放强度,称其去年的上游碳强度约为每桶油当量7公斤二氧化碳当量,是世界上上游碳排放强度最低的公司之一。阿联酋石油巨头ADNOC表示,该公司的甲烷排放强度约为0.07%。
ADNOC正在加快计划,将其石油生产能力从目前的每天400万桶提高到500万桶,但它也在寻求通过使用可再生能源和核能发电的电网能源来为陆上作业提供电力,从而使部分业务脱碳。
7月初,ADNOC的贾贝尔表示,石油和天然气行业需要“加紧行动”,减少排放,加速向更清洁能源解决方案的转变。
贾贝尔7月初在维也纳举行的欧佩克国际研讨会上说:“化石燃料的逐步减少是不可避免的。确切地说,这是必不可少的。但它不能是不负责任的。”
贾贝尔说,关键的挑战是在保持强劲可持续发展的同时减少排放,并补充说:“这就是为什么我如此关注第28届联合国气候变化大会真正具有包容性的原因。”

UAE’s ADNOC Brings Net Zero Target Forward To 2045
Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) is bringing forward its target for net-zero emissions to 2045, from a previous target of 2050, becoming the first oil company in its peer group to commit to net zero in 2045, the producer of nearly all the oil in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) said on Monday.
ADNOC also pledged to achieve zero methane emissions by 2030.
The new targets come as the UAE is preparing to host the COP28 climate summit later this year. The president-designate of the COP28 summit is ADNOC’s group CEO Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber.
Also on Monday, ADNOC reported emissions intensity for 2022, saying that its upstream carbon intensity last year was around 7 kg of carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) per barrel of equivalent, one of the world’s lowest. ADNOC’s methane intensity was around 0.07%, the Abu Dhabi oil giant said.
ADNOC is accelerating plans to raise its oil production capacity to 5 million barrels per day (bpd) from 4 million bpd now, but it is also looking to decarbonize part of its operations with the use of grid energy from renewables and nuclear generation to power onshore operations.
Early this month, ADNOC’s Al Jaber said that the oil and gas industry needs to “step up its game” to cut emissions and accelerate the shift toward cleaner energy solutions.
“The phase down of fossil fuels is inevitable. It is in fact essential. But it cannot be irresponsible,” Al Jaber, who is also the COP 28 president-designate, said at the OPEC International Seminar in Vienna in early July.
The key challenge is to cut emissions while keeping robust sustainable development, Al Jaber said, adding “That is why I am so focused on COP28 being truly inclusive.”
The pick of Al Jaber to head the COP28 climate summit in Dubai was seen as a controversial choice, considering that he is chief executive at the company pumping nearly all the oil in the UAE, an OPEC member and major crude oil exporter.
