We aim to manage climate-related risk, optimize opportunities and better equip the company to respond to: Evolving investor sentiment, technologies for emissions reduction, alternative energy technologies and uncertainties such as government policies. 

The evolving energy landscape requires a strategy that will remain robust across a range of potential future outcomes. Our strategy is comprised of four pillars: 

  • Objectives:鈥疧ur framework consists of a hierarchy of objectives — a long-term ambition that sets the direction and aim of the strategy, medium-term performance targets for operational GHG emissions and methane intensity, and near-term targets for flaring and methane intensity reductions that guide implementation of our strategy. 鈥� 
  • Technology choices:鈥疻e continue to enhance our emissions reduction programs in our current operations, while also evaluating new opportunities and technologies that can closely integrate with our global operations, markets and competencies. 
  • Portfolio choices:鈥疻e have integrated climate-related risk into our portfolio decision making through consideration of carbon pricing and focusing on low cost of supply, low GHG intensity resources by asset class. 
  • External engagement:鈥疧ur stakeholders’ points of view inform the evolution of our climate-related frameworks, actions and public policy.鈥� 

Progress in these four pillars is demonstrated throughout the following sections. Across the pillars, our strategy takes into consideration transition demand, results from scenario planning, near, medium, and long-term risks and ways to address impacts from those risks.
