National Oil Corporation of Libya

Libyan National Oil has not set any emissions reduction targets and does not disclose plans to develop any. The company should develop a long-term target that aligns with its 1.5°C pathway and covers its scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions. Additionally, the company should set intermediate targets at gaps of no more than five years to incentivise near-term action on longer-term goals.

There is no evidence that Libyan National Oil has a low-carbon transition plan. The company should establish a time-bound action plan that outlines how it will transition to a low-carbon economy. This should include medium and long-term targets, verifiable and quantifiable key performance indicators and financial commitments. The plan should be informed by scenario analysis to ensure that the plan’s ambition is sufficient for a 1.5°C pathway.

There is no evidence that Libyan National Oil is developing business activities that would enable the company to decouple financial results from greenhouse gas emissions. A low-carbon future will require the company to diversify its energy mix to renewables and low-carbon fuels or manage the close of its oil and gas business.

Libyan National Oil has not set any emissions targets. The company has not developed a vision of what its business will look like in a low-carbon future. The company continues to seek to expand its oil and gas business.

The company does not have a low-carbon transition plan and does not intend to develop one in the near future.

There is limited evidence that Libyan National Oil is investing in research and development of climate change mitigation. The company is working with Total and Repsol on the installation of solar panels, but this work is funded by other companies. The company does not report its capital expenditure (CapEx) spend on low-carbon technology. There is also no evidence that the company is developing new business models for a low-carbon future.

Libyan National Oil has been impacted by ongoing conflict and political instability within the country. Oil export, port blockades and pipeline shut-ins have both impacted the company’s production. This was most notable in 2020 when the company’s production levels dropped by two-thirds. From the data available the company’s scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions intensity is not aligned with its 1.5°C pathway.

The company’s lack of targets and strategy suggests that the company is not committed to the low-carbon transition. The company is predicted to significantly exceed its scope 3 emissions budget between 2022 and 2050 and has not committed to stopping oil and gas exploration and expansion.
