On Friday, on the sidelines of the COP27 climate conference in Egypt, Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman announced that the world had hoped to be “represented” by Saudi Arabia as the largest oil exporter.
He spoke about the Kingdom’s efforts to produce clean energy and reduce its carbon emissions, noting that the Kingdom will monitor the performance of other countries and will question the rest of the world about their progress. “The world wants to represent us,” he said. We will question (countries) the world for what they offer because we want others to match us and direct their money to support the causes they proclaim.” He added that the Saudi state oil production company, Aramco, has the lowest level of methane emissions by all standards
The minister also mentioned that Saudi Arabia is on track to achieve carbon neutrality by 2060 and possibly sooner. “I have to remind everyone that it’s all down to technology,” he said.
