中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价网站11月11日消息 西方石油公司（Occidental Petroleum）成为第一家宣布计划在2050年前将温室气体排放量降至零的美国石油公司。 在一段5分钟的视频中，Oxy列举了其在提高石油采收率方面的专业知识（该技术的特点是向油井注入二氧化碳）以及在碳捕获技术方面的经验，据该公司称，这使其处于减排工作的前沿。 作为最大的二氧化碳使用者之一，西方石油公司表示，目前每年在二叠纪地下储存约2000万吨二氧化碳，这一数额抵消了400多万辆汽车的排放量。 彭博社昨日在电话会议上援引首席执行官维姬·霍卢布的话报道称，到2040年，该公司将努力将自身运营的二氧化碳排放量降至零，并将这一目标扩大到2050年客户对其产品的使用。 今年早些时候，西方石油成为第一家支持世界银行2030年前实现零常规燃烧的美国公司，标志着这是减少二氧化碳排放努力的一部分。 美国石油公司一直不愿放弃其专注于原油和天然气开采的传统商业模式。与欧洲同行不同的是，当欧洲人匆忙宣布紧急计划，通过从核心业务转向可再生能源和相关活动来实现业务脱碳，美国能源生产商一直坚守着自己的核心业务。 Oxy的计划对分析师来说似乎特别令人印象深刻，因为它的特点是减少监管机构和环保人士划分的所有排放类型。1类排放物是指公司自身经营活动产生的排放物，2类来自向公司供电的公用事业，3类排放来自使用公司产品的消费者。 王磊 摘译自 今日油价 原文如下： Oxy Becomes First U.S. Driller To Announce Net-Zero Plan Occidental Petroleum has become the first U.S. oil company to announce a plan to slash greenhouse gas emissions to net-zero by 2050. In a five-minute video, Oxy cited its expertise in enhanced oil recovery, which features carbon dioxide injection into oil wells, as well as experience with carbon capture technology, which, according to the company, position it at the forefront of emission-cutting efforts. One of the biggest users of carbon dioxide, Occidental said it currently stores some 20 million tons of CO2 underground in the Permian every year. This amount, the company said, offsets the emissions from more than 4 million cars. Using is expertise in CO2 capturing and use, by 2040, the company will strive to reduce emissions from its own operations to a net-zero and extend this to the use of its products by customers by 2050, chief executive Vicki Hollub said during a conference call yesterday, as quoted by Bloomberg. Earlier this year, Occidental became the first U.S. company to endorse the World Bank’s Zero Routine Flaring by 2030 initiative, signaling it was part of efforts to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. U.S. oil companies have been reluctant, to put it mildly, to let go of their traditional business model that focuses on the extraction of crude oil and natural gas. Unlike their European peers, U.S. energy producers have stuck to their core business when the Europeans rushed to announce urgent plans to decarbonize their operations by shifting from their core business to renewable energy and related activities. Oxy’s plan seems to be particularly impressive for analysts, as it features plans to reduce all emission scopes as classified by regulators and environmentalists. Scope 1 emissions refer to those from a company’s own operations. Scope 2 emissions come from utilities that supply power to the company, and Scope 3 emissions come from consumers using the company’s products. |
