a. All KPIs are on a 100% operated basis, excluding GHG emissions and grid electricity consumption, which are reported on both a 100% operated basis and net equity basis.
b. The Norwegian Environment Agency conduct verifications of all reported environmental data post Sustainability Report publication. This may result in minor variations of the environment data for non-operated assets in Q3 2021.
c. Emission factors used are sourced from Norwegian Oil & Gas Guidelines.

  1. See ‘Carbon KPIs Scope and Calculation’ document available on our website for further details of quantification methodology and scope.
  2. Calculated based on tonnes methane emitted divided by total gas exported from all operated assets.
  3. Fraction of hydrocarbons combusted based on assumption from ENDRAVA.
  4. Includes material emissions from supply chain activities: business travel, helicopters and logistics (supply vessels).
  5. We have offset emissions from business and helicopter travel since 2018. Emissions in 2018 were offset in 2019.
  6. Sum of all energy sources consumed during operations, including fuel/flare gas, diesel and electricity, from offshore installations, drilling rigs and office premises. Minor restatements for 2018–2019 data.
  7. Net equity electricity consumption from power from shore was 136,754 MWh in 2020, and office-based electricity use was 1,860 MWh.
