Scope 1 refers to direct emissions from operations that are owned or controlled by the organization. We use emission factors from different sources, e.g., IPCC, API GHG Compendium, etc. Since 2016, OMV has been applying global warming potentials of the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report (AR4 – 100 years).

2

Data for 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021 restated. In one of our assets at OMV Petrom, there was an incorrect classification of flared and vented volumes. In addition, in 2021, we corrected a reporting error in our Nitro business. CO2e accordingly decreased by 3.1% in 2021, and increased by 1.8% in 2020, by 1.7% in 2019, and by 0.5% in 2018. CO2 accordingly decreased by 3.7% in 2021, and increased by 0.3% in 2020, by 0.3% in 2019, and by 0.1% in 2018. CH4 accordingly increased by 5% in 2021, by 27% in 2020, by 16% in 2019, and by 5% in 2018.

3

Scope 2 refers to indirect emissions resulting from the generation of purchased or acquired electricity, heating, cooling, or steam. We use emission factors from different sources, e.g., national authorities, supplier-specific emission factors, etc. The data in the table refers to the market-based approach. Location-based is 0.9 mn t.

4

Scope 3 refers to other indirect emissions that occur outside the organization, including both Upstream and Downstream emissions. We use emission factors from different sources, e.g., IPCC, PlasticsEurope, DBEIS, etc. The data includes Scope 3 emissions from the use and processing of sold products. Pure “trading margin” sales as well as intracompany sales are excluded. Since 2015, Scope 3 emissions from purchased goods and services and capital goods are included. Since 2018, net import of refinery feedstock is included.

5

Borealis Scope 3 category 15 emissions are accounted for as 21.6 mn t CO2 equivalent, but not yet included in the OMV’s Group consolidation.

For the purpose of setting GHG emissions reduction targets, a meaningful and consistent comparison over time requires the setting of a performance date (base year) with which to compare current emissions. For its 2030 and 2040 GHG reduction targets, the OMV Group has set 2019 as the base year including full-year Scope 1 to 3 emissions data of Borealis. In accordance with best practice guidance (i.e., GHG Protocol), when a company undergoes significant structural changes due to acquisitions, divestments, and mergers, GHG data shall be recalculated for all years dating back to the base year. OMV has set a threshold that a significant change means that the cumulative effect of mergers/acquisitions/divestments represents a higher effect than 5% on the OMV Group’s base year absolute GHG emissions. Accordingly, this table shows the recalculated emissions for the categories of emissions relevant for the 2030 targets. The previous table, GHG Emissions – Absolute, does not have recalculated data to give as transparent a picture as possible.

2

The following Scope 3 categories are included: Category 11: Use of Sold Products for OMV’s energy and Nitro segments, Category 1: Purchased Goods (feedstocks) from OMV’s non-energy business segment, and Category 12: End-of-Life of Sold Products for OMV’s non-energy segment.

3

The carbon intensity of energy supply is measured by assessing the intensity of their Scope 1 and 2 emissions plus Scope 3 emissions (in g CO2) from the use of sold energy products, against the total energy value of all externally sold energy products (in MJ) (excluding purely traded volumes).

4

The methane intensity refers to the volume of methane emissions from OMV’s operated E&P oil and gas assets as a percentage of the volume of the total gas that goes to market from those operations. The approach is aligned with the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative’s (OGCI) methane intensity. Unlike the other figures in this table, the methane intensity is not subject to a baseline recalculation, as the target is a fixed value and the target achievement is not compared to the base year. In case of mergers and aquisitions, new operations will be expected to endorse the existing target.

Direct CO2 equivalent emissions produced to generate a certain business output using the following business-specific metric – Upstream: t CO2 equivalent/toe produced, refineries: t CO2 equivalent/t throughput (crude and semi-finished products without blended volumes), power: t CO2 equivalent/MWh produced – consolidated into an OMV Group Carbon Intensity Index, based on weighted average of the business segments’ carbon intensity. The Carbon Intensity Index was developed in 2018.

The increase in the years 2022 and 2021 as compared to 2020 is due to the inclusion of Borealis. At Borealis, most of the water that is withdrawn is used for once-through cooling. Around two-thirds is brackish water. The cooling water that is discharged is of the same quality and only has a very slightly elevated temperature.

2

2021 data restated. Some surface water withdrawal was missing in the Petrobrazi refinery data. Water withdrawn accordingly increased by 0.04%, surface water withdrawn (all freshwater) increased by 0.12%, and water consumption increased by 0.49%.

3

Borealis figures are included in the total water withdrawal, water withdrawal from areas with water stress, water discharge, water discharged to areas with water stress, and water consumption, but Borealis figures are not available at a detailed level.

4

Water consumption is calculated as water withdrawal minus water discharge. The figures above might not balance as other types of water, such as rainwater, are usually not included in water withdrawal.

5

2020 data restated. A change in the reported figure for OMV Petrom’s water consumption is due to updating the calculation formula to include the produced water, as well as to correcting a visualization error for this specific data. Group-level water consumption accordingly increased by 15.8% and water consumption in areas with water stress increased by 74.8%.

2021 and 2020 data restated. Due to a layout error, the values for transboundary movement of hazardous waste (Basel convention) and other (preparation for reuse and other recovery options) were exchanged in 2020 and 2021.

3

2021 data restated. Due to a layout error, the values for waste directed to disposal and waste diverted from disposal were exchanged in 2021. The waste recovery or recycling rate of 68% in 2021 remained unaffected.
