Transition Technologies™: Decarbonizing with proven impact reductions
SLB Footprint Reduction
Reduce emissions and environmental impact with practical, quantifiably proven Transition Technologies
Challenge
Reducing environmental footprint without compromising performance
Energy industry oil and gas sector stakeholders, investors, and global and local communities demand to see more tangible, immediate carbon footprint reductions. Choosing solutions that reduce your footprint demonstrably while driving high performance is a daunting process. Decision makers must differentiate what’s meaningful from what’s seen as "greenwash."
Whether you’re already decarbonizing or just getting started, we’re here to help.
Our portfolio of Transition Technologies provides measurable reductions in emissions and environmental impacts of oil and gas operations. Using a science-based methodology developed by our engineers, the impacts of these technologies prove to reduce footprint now. Our rigorous method categorizes each technology's environmental attributes and links them to universally recognized United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), demonstrating clear areas of long-term impact and investment.
Benefits
Show tangible impact
Reducing environmental footprint is a complex effort that we’ve meticulously road mapped to decarbonize our own operations. Our qualified technologies can make it easier. By leveraging their measurable impacts, this added transparency strengthens your sustainability efforts against the ever-growing mandate to reduce emissions.
Deliver on net-zero commitments
Prioritize and measure Scopes 1, 2, and 3 emissions.
Defend your climate goals
Show meaningful progress for a more balanced planet.
Strengthen credibility with stakeholders
Demonstrate impact with confidence among your community, employees, and investors.
Gain competitive position
Reduce exposure to emissions-related costs and increase the value of your products.
Capabilities
Reduce your footprint along eight dimensions
We partner with customers who seek ways to decarbonize operations, reduce physical environmental impact, cut waste, and use better water solutions. Our expanding capabilities focus on reductions that contribute to reversing climate change and consequently align with key energy industry drivers.
