OGCI (Oil and Gas Climate Initiative)

Today, Bjørn Otto Sverdrup and Julien Perez are representing The Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter (OGDC) and OGCI (Oil and Gas Climate Initiative) at the Paris Peace Forum 2025, a global platform bringing together governments, civil society, business, and international organizations to work towards global peace and sustainable prosperity.   This year’s Forum places a strong emphasis on climate action and forging new forms of cooperation with partners ready to advance constructive solutions.   As a North-South-East-West, action-oriented coalition engaging a diverse range of oil and gas companies to accelerate decarbonization, OGDC brings a vital industry perspective to the Forum’s mission of building multi-actor responses to global challenges.    To learn more about OGDC, visit: https://www.ogdc.org/ 

Balancing energy security, affordability and climate ambition remains one of the most pressing challenges for policymakers and industry.    At the FT Live Energy Transition Summit this week, OGCI Managing Director Julien Perez will join leaders to explore how national strategies and international cooperation can accelerate progress.    OGCI member companies are taking practical action – cutting methane emissions and flaring, reducing carbon intensity, and investing at scale in low-carbon solutions.    By working across regions and systems, we’re demonstrating how collective action can deliver real results.    📍London, 29–30 October    #FTEnergy 

The key to large-scale CO₂ storage lies in the rocks beneath our feet 🌎    OGCI’s new report, Expanding CO₂ Storage, explores how CO₂ mineralization – a natural reaction that turns CO₂ into rock – could unlock vast, permanent storage potential around the world.    By expanding viable storage options, this approach could make large-scale #CCUS possible in more regions and accelerate progress towards #NetZero.    Download the report via the link in the comments. 

This is an important article. Bill Gates is calling for a new approach on climate. And it is really new one. 2 out of 3 truths. Temperature is not the best way to measure Progress. Health and prosperity are the best defense against climate. A caring and technology optimistic perspective based on science. https://lnkd.in/dZuJadM4

OGCI members are investing at scale in the technologies needed for the energy transition.    💸 $30 bn invested in low-carbon solutions in 2024  💸 $125 bn cumulative investment since 2017    This includes projects, acquisitions and R&D across CCUS, renewables, low-carbon fuels and more.    See the full investment picture in the Progress Report → link in comments.    aramco bp Chevron CNPC Eni Equinor ExxonMobil Oxy Petrobras repsol Shell TotalEnergies    #OGCIProgressReport2025 

"Cutting emissions and providing reliable energy are not mutually exclusive” 💬 In an exclusive interview with Energy Voice, OGCI Managing Director Julien Perez discusses how the oil and gas industry can balance near-term energy security with long-term decarbonization goals. The conversation explores: • How OGCI members are advancing emissions reduction while meeting global demand • What’s needed to maintain momentum on the transition amid changing market realities • How OGCI is sharing learnings through the The Oil & Gas Decarbonization Charter (OGDC) and supporting the deployment of technologies such as CCUS and renewable fuels OGCI continues to work with members, partners and stakeholders worldwide to demonstrate that practical, scalable decarbonization is achievable across the sector. Watch the full interview on Energy Voice now. 

OGCI members are staying the course – cutting emissions intensity across methane, carbon and flaring.    Since 2017:  ⬇️ Upstream carbon intensity down 24%  ⬇️ Upstream methane intensity down 62%  ⬇️ Routine flaring down 72%    Together we’re delivering sustained reductions, sharing best practices, and building momentum for industry-wide progress.    Find out more in our 2025 Progress Report: https://hubs.ly/Q03NTWpz0   aramco bp Chevron CNPC Eni Equinor ExxonMobil Oxy Petrobras repsol Shell TotalEnergies    #OGCIProgressReport2025
