Sonatrach's reported carbon emissions

Sonatrach, headquartered in Algeria (DZ), currently does not provide specific carbon emissions data for the most recent year, as no emissions figures are available. Additionally, there are no documented reduction targets or climate pledges outlined in their initiatives. This lack of data suggests that Sonatrach may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate commitments or reporting on its carbon footprint. In the context of the oil and gas industry, companies are increasingly expected to set ambitious targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions across all scopes—Scope 1, 2, and 3. Without specific commitments or targets, it remains unclear how Sonatrach plans to address its carbon emissions and contribute to global climate goals.
