Saudi Aramco scores 12/100 (Critical concern) on SINK's independent climate assessment — scored from public data only, no company payment can change a number. Last verified May 2026.
That places Saudi Aramco joint 591st of 596 companies scored, and joint 10th of 11 in Oil & Gas.
Saudi Aramco is the world's largest corporate emitter, refusing to disclose Scope 3 emissions (~1.6–1.84 Gt CO₂e annually, 4.4% of global emissions). Operational emissions are rising, targets are intensity-only while production expands, and the company actively lobbies against climate action. Scope 3 non-disclosure alone is disqualifying.
