Trend
Occidental receives a trend score of -. If the company were reassessed in the near future, its score would likely decrease. Although Occidental has set emissions reduction targets, these are not aligned with the rate of change required by the company’s 1.5°C pathway. The focal point of Occidental’s net-zero strategy is carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS) technologies, which the company is undertaking through its subsidiary Occidental Low Carbon Ventures (OLCV). OLCV has several partnerships underway, but without clear expansion and investment plans, promotion strategies or deployment schedules, it remains difficult to determine whether the company will achieve its net-zero commitments through these ventures.
