MAIN ESG RATINGS
Gold B3 7.42/10 ESG Score > peers' average 22.0/100 Medium Risk

We categorize our work under three types – Sustainable, Transitional or Traditional – in relation to the contribution to decarbonization and circularity objectives

We make this classification based on management's evaluation considering life-cycle assessments of technologies and/or specific project characteristics

Sustainability-related backlog, revenue and capex are calculated aggregating items categorized as Transitional or Sustainable
Sustainable Includes hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives1 from electrolysis (green and pink), e-fuels, biofuels, SAF, bioplastics from bio-feedstock, plastic upcycling, chemical recycling (depolymerization), Waste-to-X (gasification), renewables and nuclear energy
Transitional Includes gas processing with carbon capture, low-carbon hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives1 (blue), carbon capture, biodegradable plastics from fossil feedstock, Ultra Low Energy urea and nitric acid
Traditional All other market segments, including, for example: oil refining, chemicals, petrochemicals, hydrogen and hydrogen derivatives1 produced without carbon capture (grey), sulphur recovery units, traditional urea
Not subject to third-party assurance. 1. Including ammonia and methanol.

Sustainability-related capex are defined as the sum of transitional and sustainable investments. Please refer to the slide in appendix for the criteria used in the determination of transitional and sustainable work.
