Eni to deliver Carbon Neutral LNG cargo to CPC
Eni and CPC Corporation, Taiwan reached an agreement for the delivery by Eni of a carbon neutral LNG cargo to CPC Corporation, Taiwan, at the Yung An receiving terminal.
The LNG will be sourced from the Bontang liquefaction terminal in Indonesia as part of Eni’s contract with Eni Muara Bakau B.V., the joint venture operated by Eni which owns and operates the Jangkrik gas field.
The cargo will be certified as Carbon Neutral according to the internationally recognized PAS2060* standard. As part of the transaction, the overall GHG emissions related to the entire value chain of the LNG cargo, including gas production, transmission, liquefaction, shipping, regasification, distribution and end use, will be offset through the retirement of high quality nature based credits. In particular, the credits have been sourced from two REDD+ projects certified by Verra**: Luangwa Community Forest project in Zambia and Kulera Landscape REDD+ project in Malawi.
The assessments will include a verification of the Projects’ calculated CO2 reductions and/or removals and the criteria of additionality, permanence, leakage and double counting.
