Decarbonisation
Benchmarking Study in the United Kingdom

Project
Brownfield Redevelopment
Client Objective
Identify what is the norm in terms of emissions, and identify technologies to beat the average and be best-in-class.
Standards Considered
GHG Protocol
Emissions Considered
Scope 1
Scope 2
Preparing for Regulatory Submissions.
Under UK regulations, companies must demonstrate to the NSTA how they integrated net zero considerations into their development plans.
Need:
Brownfield developers inherently have higher emission intensities. Net Zero discussions with regulators are hindered by the lack of understanding of what expectations should be in late life vs early life developments.
Project:
ERCE was commissioned to complete an emissions benchmarking study, focusing on emissions intensity over field life.
Outcome:
We presented our findings at Topsides UK in 2022 as “Emissions Reduction Workflow for New FPSO Development”.
