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.

A pressing challenge facing the aviation industry is to aggressively reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the face of increasing demand for aviation fuels. Climate goals such as carbon-neutral growth from 2020 onwards require continuous improvements in technology, operations, infrastructure, and most importantly, reductions in aviation fuel life cycle emissions. The Carbon Offsetting Scheme for International Aviation of the International Civil Aviation Organization provides a global market-based measure to group all possible emissions reduction measures into a joint program.
