Rationale

Many lubricant manufacturers, including those independent lubricant manufacturers not associated or affiliated with major oil companies who engage in exploration and refining of lubricant base stocks, are looking for calculating templates available to help them establish a base line for Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions and, to the extent calculable, Scope 3 emissions. This guide will inform such lubricant manufacturers who choose to explore such emissions to which they contribute directly and indirectly as to the calculating templates particularly useful to them and identify the costs and potential benefits from using each to provide both a base line and then enable setting of goals to reduce emissions.
