WBA's Oil and Gas Benchmark 2023 presents a ranking of 100 keystone oil and gas companies based on an Assessing low-Carbon Transition (ACT) assessment and a social assessment comprising Core Social and Just Transition Indicators.

The ACT assessments measure the companies’ degree of alignment to the low-carbon transition, in line with the 1.5°C Paris Agreement temperature goal. The social assessments measure whether the companies are transitioning in a just and equitable way.

Details of how WBA integrates the two assessments to calculate the total score can be found in the WBA Oil and Gas 2023 methodology report.

In 2021, the Oil and Gas Benchmark assessed 100 keystone companies. For the 2023 assessment, it is important to note that the benchmark includes 99 companies. In 2022, BHP’s petroleum business merged with Woodside Energy. As BHP no longer operates in the oil and gas sector, its assessment has not been completed. In addition, the activities formerly under BHP’s petroleum business have not been included in the assessment of Woodside Energy as information was not available at the time of assessment.
