Cheniere has set a voluntary, measurement-informed Scope 1 annual methane intensity target for our liquefaction facilities. The Scope 1 methane target builds upon our robust climate strategy and leverages data from our multi-scale emissions measurement and mitigation programs. The methane target is consistent with the requirements to achieve Gold Standard under Cheniere’s membership in the United Nations Environment Programme’s (UNEP) Oil & Gas Methane Partnership (OGMP) 2.0.

We aim to consistently maintain a Scope 1 annual methane emissions intensity of 0.03% per tonne of LNG produced across our two U.S. Gulf Coast liquefaction facilities by 2027. Using measured emissions data to inform methane targets represents an important element in our strategy and moves the industry forward in its climate performance.

Our Quantification, Monitoring, Reporting and Verification (QMRV) projects — including data from approximately 50 aerial measurements of the Company’s operations at our liquefaction facilities performed over a 16-month period — informed the process of establishing the methane target.
