The briefing highlights the role of oil and gas in supporting a just transition, the regional complexities of a net-zero future and the need for collaboration to scale up energy transition enablers.
The brief highlights that of the multiple science-based pathways to net-zero, those that also achieve the ambitions of UN Sustainable Development Goals, such as prosperity and energy access for all, require all energy sources, including oil and gas, for the foreseeable future.
Ipieca draws on analysis from a range of sources, including the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which sets out a number of science-based potential pathways to achieving net-zero emissions.
The briefing covers:
- The Paris Agreement and society's journey to net zero
- Regional differences and a just transition
- Access to affordable, reliable and sustainable energy for all
- Net-zero emissions and the oil and gas sector
- Partnerships and collaborations
- The role of Ipieca in the journey to net-zero emissions

 | Net-zero emissions briefing: key messages | Awareness brief | |
This PDF summarises the key messages from the 'Net-zero emissions: supporting the Paris Agreement and its aims' briefing.
This glossary was developed to support the oil and gas industry and other stakeholders in the use of consistent terminology around net-zero emissions.
Responding to the continuous advancement of technology, Ipieca, IOGP, OGCI, and the Energy Institute have released an update of this guidance and online tool to help operators select and deploy methane detection and quantification technologies.
The Ipieca-IOGP-GGFR Flaring management guidance outlines new developments in flaring management and reduction, and examines industry experiences with eliminating flaring, new technologies, business models, operational improvements and regulatory policy.
