The energy industry

## An industry in transition

The Energy Transition, not just a token phrase but a necessary step towards a sustainable future.

The energy industry needs to undergo a profound transformation to meet the challenges of climate change and create a more sustainable world. To limit global warming to 1.5°C by 2050, we need to rapidly reduce greenhouse gas emissions and shift towards clean and renewable energy sources, without overlooking the tough work of decarbonising conventional energy sources from within.

![Accelerating the enrgy transition]()

At the core of everything we do

## Energy transition

The greatest positive change we can make today is to create change from within. In every thing we do on our projects, in our industry, supporting and collaborating with our partners - leveraging the brilliant minds, efforts and spirit of all our wonderfully different and talented people in new ways. Not just in our focused quest for renewables but in how we decarbonise the process to source oil and gas for the world's energy needs right now too. We choose both.

Getting the job done

## Our roadmap

With our extensive scope of services and our vast track record in Low Carbon & Renewables, we have a broad understanding of the value chain for energy production and utilisation. This allows us to advocate for the transformation of the oil, gas and chemicals facilities and infrastructure towards reducing the environmental impact of fossil fuels.

With the leadership of Emma Scott, Vice President of Sustainability, we are committed to:

- Developing a methodology for measuring and reporting on projects.
- Developing an Energy Transition data dashboard to track our progress
- Designing tracking dashboards to document which of our major projects have contributed to ET and how they are doing it
