Shell is a leading supplier of carbon-neutral LNG after delivering the world’s first cargoes in 2019 and many more subsequently. This collaboration allows Oman LNG to tap into the knowledge and expertise of Shell while it translates Oman LNG’s bold commitment towards knowledge sharing as well as exploring suitable mechanisms to reduce emissions. Natural gas is the cleanest-burning hydrocarbon, producing half the greenhouse gas emissions and less than one-tenth of the air pollutants of coal when used to generate electricity. Using nature-based offsets in conjunction with LNG provides a unique clean energy solution.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EEnvironmental performance tops Oman LNG’s priorities since inception. Lately, the company has initiated a number of projects to eliminate its carbon footprint such as the on-going Power Project Plant at site. The move to introduce the gas engine power plant is to conserve natural gas and reduce emissions. Gas savings accumulated through this project are aimed at producing power for Oman LNG’s facility with less natural gas by optimising gas resources and therefore yielding less environmental emissions.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EThese efforts by the company complement the Sultanate’s Vision Oman 2040 which focuses on four main axes; one of which is themed “environment whose resources are sustainable”. This axis covers aspects of the environment performance and natural resources, which puts significant emphasis on environmental perspective to be considered during the creation of policies, decisions making in industrial planning and implementation.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003ESpeaking on the agreement, Hamed Al Naamany, CEO of Oman LNG commented “Oman LNG has taken major steps over the past few years such as introducing new technologies and replacing machines to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. Our role in protecting and restoring the natural ecosystems could play an important role in limiting global warming. These changes ultimately ensure the efficiency and sustainability of our plant and machinery.” Al Naamany continues, “Using high-quality nature-based offsets for Oman LNG’s first carbon-neutral LNG cargo offering is a testimony of our commitment to the environment, and our focus on decarbonisation. We continue to be amongst the top quartile of the premium LNG market, and aim to remain in this position post-2025”.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003EOman LNG provides cleaner and efficient LNG to customers from which tangible value is reached for the Sultanate of Oman and its people through a wide swath of social investment programmes that addresses many economic and social needs, including avenues to generate In-Country Value and Small Medium Enterprises (SMEs) development. The LNG industry in Oman has now grown to be the largest income earner for the Sultanate, after oil.\u003C/p\u003E\r\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Csup\u003E1\u003C/sup\u003E \u003Csub\u003EThe CO₂e lifecycle emissions of this product have been offset with verified Nature-Based Carbon Credits.\u003C/sub\u003E\u003Cbr\u003E\r\n\u003Csup\u003E2\u003C/sup\u003E \u003Csub\u003EDEFRA Greenhouse gas reporting: conversion factors 2020 will be used to calculate GHG emissions.\u003C/sub\u003E\u003C/p\u003E\r\n"}}],"id":"/content/shell/countries/oman/en_om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply/jcr_content/root/main/section","model":{}}],"id":"/content/shell/countries/oman/en_om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply/jcr_content/root/main","model":{}},{"organism":"Container.Footer","children":[{"organism":"Breadcrumb.Large","model":{"links":[{"name":"Home","value":"https://www.shell.com.om/"},{"name":"Media","value":"https://www.shell.com.om/media.html"},{"name":"2021 Media releases","value":"https://www.shell.com.om/media/2021-media-releases.html"},{"name":"Oman LNG’s First Carbon-Neutral LNG Supply","value":"https://www.shell.com.om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply.html"}]},"id":"/content/shell/countries/oman/en_om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply/jcr_content/root/footer/breadcrumb"},{"organism":"Container.Raw","ref":"https://www.shell.com.om/_jcr_content/root/footer/inherited.model.json","id":"/content/shell/countries/oman/en_om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply/jcr_content/root/footer/inherited","model":{}}],"id":"/content/shell/countries/oman/en_om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply/jcr_content/root/footer","model":{}}],"id":"/conf/shell/settings/wcm/templates/base/structure/jcr_content/root","model":{}}],"model":{"title":"Oman LNG’s First Carbon-Neutral LNG Supply","text":"Attesting to its robust efforts in delivering clean and reliable energy, Oman LNG has signed a pivotal agreement with Shell to deliver the Middle East first carbon-neutral¹ LNG cargo utilising nature based offsets from Oman LNG’s world class facility in Sur.","date":"2021-06-09T11:36:00Z","links":[{"name":"canonical","value":"https://www.shell.com.om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply.html"},{"name":"errorUrl","value":"https://www.shell.com.om/error.html"},{"name":"hierarchy","value":"en_om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply"},{"name":"homeTitle","value":"Shell Development Oman LLC"},{"name":"homeUrl","value":"https://www.shell.com.om/"},{"name":"locale","value":"en-OM"},{"name":"title","value":"Oman LNG’s First Carbon-Neutral LNG Supply | Shell Development Oman LLC"},{"name":"textDirection","value":"ltr"},{"name":"template","value":"base"},{"name":"contentPath","value":"/content/shell/countries/oman/en_om/media/2021-media-releases/oman-lngs-first-carbon-neutral-lng-supply"},{"name":"externalDisclaimerText","value":"Shell plc Legal Disclaimer\r\n\r\nYou are now leaving the Shell website.\r\n\r\nThe link you have selected will direct you to a website that is not controlled by Shell plc or any member of the Shell Group.
