卡塔尔石油公布减少温室气体排放的战略

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据1月14日offshore energy消息：液化天然气巨头卡塔尔石油公司日前公布了到2030年大幅减少温室气体排放的战略。

　　卡塔尔石油公司的可持续发展战略植根于三大支柱：缓解气候变化、运营责任以及社会和经济发展。该战略确定了一些目标，并与《巴黎协定》的目标保持一致，同时启动了到2030年减少温室气体排放的计划。它规定在卡塔尔部署专门的碳捕获和储存设施，每年捕获超过700万吨的二氧化碳。

　　该战略还将有助于将卡塔尔液化天然气设施的排放强度降低25%，将其上游设施的排放强度降低至少15%，同时将上游设施的火炬强度降低75%以上。

　　另外还制定了一个目标，到2030年消除常规燃除，并通过设定到2025年所有设施的甲烷强度达到0.2%的目标，限制沿天然气价值链的短期甲烷排放。

　　卡塔尔石油公司总裁兼首席执行官Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi表示：“我们的气候变化缓解计划与《巴黎协定》的目标保持一致，并为实现全球净零排放的宏伟目标提供宝贵支持。卡塔尔是世界上最大的液化天然气生产商，通过实施可持续发展战略，将在帮助减少气候变化的影响方面发挥决定性作用，具体做法是控制排放，使用最新的成熟的碳减排技术生产液化天然气，从而帮助减少气候变化的影响”。

　　该战略以《卡塔尔2030年国家愿景》和联合国可持续发展目标为基础，旨在减少全球变暖排放，同时确保清洁和负担得起的能源供应。它规定在卡塔尔的投资组合中增加4吉瓦的无碳可再生能源电力，这将每年减少500多万吨二氧化碳排放。

　　Qatar Petroleum plans emissions cuts by 2030

　　LNG giant Qatar Petroleum has unveiled its strategy to significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions from its operations by 2030.

　　Qatar Petroleum’s sustainability strategy is rooted in three main pillars: climate change mitigation, operational responsibility, and social and economic development. The strategy establishes a number of targets, aligned with the goals of the Paris Agreement, and sets in motion a plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. It stipulates deploying dedicated Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) facilities to capture more than 7 million tons per annum of CO2 in Qatar.

　　The strategy will also help reduce the emissions intensity of Qatar’s LNG facilities by 25 per cent and of its upstream facilities by at least 15 per cent, while reducing flare intensity across upstream facilities by more than 75 per cent.

　　It sets out a target to eliminate routine flaring by 2030, and limit fugitive methane emissions along the gas value chain by setting a methane intensity target of 0.2 per cent across all facilities by 2025.

　　Saad Sherida Al-Kaabi, president and CEO of Qatar Petroleum, said: “Our climate change mitigation plans are consistent with the goals of the Paris Agreement, and provide valuable support to global ambitions to achieve net zero emissions. Qatar is the world’s largest LNG producer and, by implementing our Sustainability Strategy, we will play a decisive role in helping reduce the impact of climate change by implementing measures to curb emissions, produce LNG using the latest proven carbon reduction technologies, and compensating for residual emissions where necessary”.

　　The strategy is underpinned by Qatar National Vision 2030 and the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and bridges the effort to reduce planet-warming emissions while ensuring clean and affordable energy supplies. It stipulates adding more than 4 gigawatt of electric power from carbon-free renewable energy to its portfolio in Qatar that would eliminate more than 5 million tons of CO2 emissions per year.

　　The strategy also includes various initiatives, such as investments in education and technical training in local communities and the flagship “Tawteen” program, a strategic initiative to create and enable local business opportunities in Qatar’s energy sector supply chain with a focus on the development of local Small and Medium Enterprises.
