Managing GHG emissions and addressing stakeholder expectations for environmental stewardship are vital to our long-term success. ONEOK identifies GHG emissions as an important focus area and continuously seeks opportunities to reduce and avoid emissions in our operations through strategic programs and initiatives.
We remain focused on continued methane emission reductions and continue to reduce methane emissions by leveraging methane detection technology, implementing methane best management practices and eliminating methane emission sources in our operations. Since 2019, we have reduced absolute methane emissions from our Scope 1 operations by approximately 57% while continuing to grow our operational footprint.
As of year-end 2024, ONEOK had achieved reductions totaling approximately 1.7 MMT, or 77% toward our targeted 2.2 MMT of CO2e reductions by 2030.
