Delivering sustainability outcomes Delivering sustainability and innovation outcomes Woodside’s net equity Scope 1 and 2 emissions reduction targets are to reduce 15% by 2025 and 30% by 2030 below the starting base. Targets and aspiration are for net equity Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions relative to a starting base of 6.32 Mt CO2-e which is representative of the gross annual average equity Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas emissions over 2016-2020 and which may be adjusted (up or down) for potential equity changes in producing or sanctioned assets with a final investment decision prior to 2021. Net equity emissions include the utilisation of carbon credits as offsets. Please refer to Woodside’s 2024 Climate Update for further information. Woodside’s Scope 3 investment target is to invest US$5 billion in new energy products and lower-carbon services by 2030. Woodside’s Scope 3 emissions abatement target is to take FID on new energy products and lower-carbon services by 2030, with a total abatement of capacity of 5 Mtpa CO2-e. The acquisition of the Beaumont New Ammonia Project has delivered material progress towards our Scope 3 investment and abatement targets.
