ESG & Sustainability Support

ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) reporting isn’t going away. Investors, regulators and stakeholders expect oil and gas companies to track and report their environmental impact, emissions and sustainability efforts.

But keeping up with shifting ESG rules, while running day-to-day operations, takes time that your team probably doesn’t have. That’s where we come in.

We help oil and gas operators gather accurate data, meet reporting requirements and verify ESG claims so you can stay compliant, credible and competitive.

What ESG Means for Oil & Gas

From emissions tracking to sustainability goals, ESG affects the way oil and gas companies operate. Some of the biggest areas to watch include:

  • Carbon & methane reporting - New regulations require accurate tracking of Scope 1, 2, and sometimes Scope 3 emissions.

  • Methane reduction - Stricter NSPS OOOOa, OOOOb and OOOOc rules mean more inspections and lower emissions limits.

  • Water & land use - Managing produced water, land restoration and environmental impact.

  • ESG data verification - Ensuring reports meet investor expectations and sustainability standards like the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB).

How We Help

Whether you’re building an ESG program from scratch or fine-tuning your reporting, we help you collect, verify and strengthen your data for accurate, credible results.

  • ESG data & reporting - Helping you track, organize and report key metrics.

  • GHG & methane emissions verification - Ensuring compliance with EPA Subpart W, NSPS OOOOa, OOOOb and OOOOc, Waste Emissions Charge (WEC) and state-specific rules.

  • Third-party ESG data validation - Independent verification for investors, regulators and internal reporting.

  • Regulatory & stakeholder compliance - Making sure reports align with sustainability frameworks (GRI, SASB, TCFD, CDP), and investor requirements.

  • Sustainability data & impact tracking - Measuring emissions reductions, environmental impact and ESG progress over time.

  • Voluntary methane reduction verification programs - Supporting participation in initiatives demonstrating commitment to emissions transparency. 

Our goal is to make ESG reporting and compliance as simple as possible.


Common ESG Challenges in Oil & Gas

  • ESG reports pull from operations, environmental and financial data across multiple sites. Gaps or errors can lead to compliance risks.

  • Operators face different state, federal and voluntary ESG reporting requirements, and it’s not always clear which apply.

  • Investors, regulators and stakeholders want proof of emissions reductions and sustainability claims.

  • Methane regulations and ESG scoring are always changing, making it tough to keep up.

Without a clear approach, ESG can drain resources, but with the right support, it’s manageable.
