Statoil: Collaboration on carbon neutral travel

Statoil and the Berg-Hansen travel agency are joining forces to raise awareness about carbon dioxide emissions in connection with business travel.

As of 3 January 2007 Statoil employees will find the following information about their flights’ CO2 emissions on their travel reservations from Berg-Hansen:

“On this journey your share of the total emissions will be XX kilograms. This is only an estimate. Actual emissions will vary according to weather conditions, landing approach route, type of aircraft, weight and number of passengers etc. The emission will be offset by Statoil through the purchase of CO2 quotas in the international emission trading market. Your journey will therefore not increase the total CO2 content in the atmosphere.”
