In late January, China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) inaugurated its first "carbon neutral" gas station in North China, located in Tianjin. The station was developed with the support of the Energy Conservation and Emission Reduction Monitoring Center, a subsidiary of CNOOC Development’s Safety and Environmental Protection Division.
According to officials, the "carbon neutral" service covers the entire process from initial planning and emissions accounting to implementation and promotional efforts. This service includes low-carbon consulting, carbon asset management, and production operations provided by the Monitoring Center. In January 2025, the Monitoring Center completed the greenhouse gas emissions accounting for the gas station located on Dongguo South Road in Binhai New Area, Tianjin, under CNOOC Sales Tianjin Ltd. As part of the process, they developed transaction plans, conducted market inquiries, and managed the trading and cancellation of Certified Emission Reductions (CCERs). Additionally, a "carbon neutral" evaluation report for the station was created, resulting in the issuance of a "carbon neutral" certificate.
The "carbon neutral" initiative is a significant part of CNOOC Development’s strategy to support the company’s green and low-carbon transformation. By implementing carbon emissions accounting, trading carbon assets, canceling carbon credits, and evaluating carbon neutrality for "carbon neutral" buildings and facilities, CNOOC is working to offset emissions during its operations. These actions will help position CNOOC as a model for green and low-carbon energy production and consumption, accelerating the company’s broader transition to a sustainable, low-carbon future.
