Following our 2021 Strategic Review, IOGP is working to help the oil and gas industry accelerate the implementation of low carbon projects and operations.

Building on the solid foundation established over the past several years, the Energy Transition Directorate continues to lead the way in providing practical technical guidance to support upstream oil and gas operators in achieving their decarbonization goals. The Directorate seeks to strengthen collaboration and partnerships across the global energy landscape and expands its role in international forums, positioning IOGP as a trusted enabler of industry transformation.

Through its Low Carbon Operational Efficiency (LCOE) and Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) Committees, the Directorate advances strategic priorities by delivering business plans that champion emissions reduction, accelerate CCS deployment, and equip members with scalable decarbonization frameworks. Central to these efforts is the Energy Transition Integrated Framework (ETIF), which serves as a practical toolkit for operators to standardize and implement effective emissions-reduction strategies across diverse operations.

The energy transition requires coordinated, committed, and informed action. Looking ahead, the Directorate remains focused on turning ambition into measurable action: increasing adoption of IOGP’s technical publications, addressing remaining technical gaps, and promoting alignment across the industry. Together with its members and partners, IOGP is committed to enabling impactful, coordinated progress toward a lower-carbon future.
