Kinetik Holdings Inc. (NYSE:KNTK) ("Kinetik" or the "Company") published its 2023 Sustainability Report (the "Report"), highlighting its sustainability initiatives, advancements and achievements throughout 2023. The Report provides a transparent and comprehensive review of Kinetik's progress towards a safer, cleaner, and more reliable energy future and its continued commitment to sustainability and responsible corporate practices.
"2023 marks another year of milestones towards our environmental, safety and sustainability priorities," said Jamie Welch, President and CEO. "Our commitment has enabled us to advance our initiatives including greenhouse gas emissions reductions, employee safety and well-being, community outreach, and additional clean energy business opportunities. Last year, we formed our New Energy Ventures group with a focus on evaluating projects to facilitate Kinetik's role in the energy transition and have since announced our partnership with Infinium, an industry leader in the production of ultra low-carbon e-Fuels. We are excited about the road ahead to further decarbonize our footprint and mitigate environmental impacts. The ongoing support and guidance from our Board of Directors has also been integral to the success of our sustainability program. I want to thank our employees for upholding the highest standards of safety and asset integrity and fostering a culture of responsibility and reliability. Together, we can and will drive energy for change."
Matt Wall, COO, added, "At Kinetik, we are results driven and strive to improve our performance year-over-year. We embrace new technologies and evaluate past performance to strengthen our safety and environmental programs. In 2023, we achieved an 83% reduction in Total Recordable Incident Rate over the prior year and had zero lost time incidents. Additionally, we made meaningful advances towards our long-term emissions goals. Amid a nearly 25% increase in natural gas volumes on our system since 2021, we have reduced our methane and greenhouse gas emissions intensities by 32% and 14%, respectively, over that same period. This was largely accomplished by upgrading natural gas pneumatics and pumps to instrument air, electrification of compression, a robust leak detection and repair program, aerial emissions monitoring, and advanced emissions detection technology. Our efforts and actions reinforce our commitment to our people, safety, the environment, and our communities."
