On the back of the Securities and Exchange Commission emissions disclosure ruling and additional releases around European Sustainability Reporting Standards for the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive, Ryan Bogner, EY Americas Digital Sustainability Leader, and Josh Loftus, Energy Director, Ernst & Young LLP, discuss how oil and gas companies can progress compliance and create commercial value by connecting operational data with environmental, social and governance (ESG) data.
Ryan and Josh share that unlocking value from ESG data doesn’t require brand-new technology or infrastructure. Many companies can connect existing core operational data systems with a centralized integration point and leading market emissions reporting solutions to create needed processes. The key is connecting data sources across the organization and moving from lagging processes to tracking and reporting to facilitate front-line decision-making that enables decarbonization.
