Know your Oil and Gas with the OCI+ Web Tool: Climate Intelligence for the Petroleum Sector

About the Talk Oil and gas are responsible for most of the energy sector greenhouse gases. But no two oil and gas resources are alike in their climate footprint. This presentation will highlight RMI's recently released Oil Climate Index plus Gas (OCI+) web tool, which assesses emissions from half of the world's oil and gas supplies with unparalleled transparency. The OCI+ reveals differences between individual resources and provides important climate intelligence that operators, policymakers, investors, and civil society need to immediately reduce emissions. We will also discuss next steps for the OCI+, including opportunities to integrate additional data sources, as well as the key findings of the Know Your Oil and Gas report. The report, web tool, and other materials can be found at https://rmi.org/insight/kyog/.
