IEA：本世纪二十年代实现油气行业碳减排需要6000亿美元

据油气新闻网5月6日报道，根据国际能源署（IEA）的一份新报告显示，本世纪二十年代需要约6000亿美元的支出才能实现石油和天然气碳排放的削减。

这只是油气生产商在2022年创纪录的意外收入的一小部分。IEA在报告中表示，许多措施还通过避免使用或浪费天然气来产生额外的现金流，这意味着它们可以迅速收回所需的前期支出。

这份名为《净零转型中的油气业务碳排放》的新报告旨在为11月在迪拜举行的COP28气候变化会议之前的讨论提供信息。

这是今年发布的《世界能源展望》特别报告的一部分，该报告探讨了油气行业在净零转型中的作用。

目前，油气行业的温室气体排放量占能源相关温室气体排放量的近15%，该行业有能力并拥有所需资源实现快速有效地减少温室气体排放。

IEA的一份新报告探讨了油气行业需要立即采取的措施，以大幅减少其碳排放足迹，并帮助世界更快实现其国际能源和气候目标。

2022年，油气的生产、运输和加工相当于排放了51亿吨的二氧化碳。在IEA的2050年净零排放情景中，这些活动的排放强度到本十年末将下降50%。

如果假设石油和天然气消费减少的态势持续，到2030年，油气业务的排放量将减少60%。

该报告确定了实现这一减排的五个关键杠杆，包括：解决甲烷排放问题，消除所有非紧急燃烧，用低排放电力源为上游设施供电，为石油和天然气工艺配备碳捕获、利用和储存设备，以及在炼油厂扩大低排放氢气的使用。

$600bn needed to achieve cut in oil and gas emissions:IEA

Around $600 billion spending is required this decade to achieve the cut in oil and gas emissions, according to a new report by International Energy Agency (IEA).

This is only a fraction of the record windfall income that oil and gas producers accrued in 2022. Many of the measures also generate additional income streams by avoiding the use or waste of gas meaning they can quickly recoup the upfront spending required, said IEA in the report.

The new report – Emissions from Oil and Gas Operations in Net Zero Transitions – aims to inform discussions in the run-up to the COP28 Climate Change Conference in Dubai in November.

It is part of a broader World Energy Outlook special report being released this year examining the role of the oil and gas industry in net zero transitions.

Oil and gas operations account for nearly 15% of energy-related greenhouse gas emissions today and the industry has the ability and resources to cut them quickly and cost effectively.

A new IEA report examines the immediate steps the oil and gas industry needs to take to significantly reduce its emissions footprint and help move the world closer to meeting its international energy and climate goals.

The production, transport and processing of oil and gas emitted the equivalent of 5.1 billion tonnes of CO2 in 2022. In the IEA’s Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario, the emissions intensity of these activities falls by 50% by the end of the decade.

Combined with the reductions in oil and gas consumption in this scenario, this results in a 60% reduction in emissions from oil and gas operations to 2030.

The report identifies five key levers to achieve this reduction, including: tackling methane emissions; eliminating all non-emergency flaring; electrifying upstream facilities with low-emissions electricity; equipping oil and gas processes with carbon capture, utilisation and storage; and expanding the use of low-emissions hydrogen in refineries.
