We are also pursuing carbon-neutral initiatives, including a solarization project on OML 58 and the cessation of routine flaring on OML 100 as of December 2023. We have achieved zero routine flaring in all our upstream operations in Nigeria. Nigeria was also one of the first countries in which we carried out campaigns to detect and measure methane emissions on oil and gas installations, using our state-of-the-art drone-mounted AUSEA technology.
