Addressing Loose Corporate Targets with the SBTi Net Zero Standard
“The Standard, launched at COP26, tackles slippery net zero definitions, inconsistent approaches and reliance on offsets. External third party verification will provide transparency on annual progress against unambiguous criteria and scope for both short term and long term decarbonization targets across the entire value chain.”
Francesca Cerchia, Global Service Manager – Industries & Environment
The Integrated Approach to Production Enhancement and Asset Integrity
“No matter the state of the energy business, there is always a need to enhance production and reduce costs while maintaining asset integrity. It is important to integrate the operator’s experience and information with data analytics, smart intelligence from subject matter experts and novel ideas, so that together we can develop solutions that deliver value to the customer and help them meet their net zero ambitions in a safe and sustainable manner.”

Angus Maciver, Global Development Manager – CCUS
Helping Clients Effectively Develop Marginal Fields
“As the oil & gas industry moves toward net zero production, it’s essential that identified reserves can be fully evaluated and brought into production in a cost effective manner. Our early production solutions help clients gather more information about reservoir performance while establishing needed production in a cost effective and sustainable manner. We want to work with existing clients and the wider industry to produce available resources at the lowest possible carbon intensity, building on a number of recent successful projects.”
Tigani Elmahi, Early Production Facilities Manager
Efficient Production and Innovation on the Road to Net Zero
