Article Synopsis
  • - The transition to a new energy mix is increasing the demand for precise emissions reporting in the petroleum supply chain due to environmental regulations and the complexities of crude oil trading.
  • - Current assessments of carbon footprints lack detail and do not provide adequate traceability from oil wells to refineries, resulting in significant variability in carbon intensities.
  • - By using advanced data and algorithms, the study reveals a wide range of carbon emission intensities in crude trade pathways, highlighting that prioritizing low-carbon sources could save 1.5-6.1 Gigatons of CO-equivalent emissions by 2050 under climate-friendly scenarios.

As natural gas demand surges in China, driven by the coal-to-gas switching policy, widespread attention is focused on its impacts on global gas supply-demand rebalance and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Here, for the first time, we estimate well-to-city-gate GHG emissions of gas supplies for China, based on analyses of field-specific characteristics of 104 fields in 15 countries. Results show GHG intensities of supplies from 104 fields vary from 6.
