2022 Scope 1 GHG emissions are restated herein after a recent EPA Greenhouse Gas Reporting resubmittal.

Data and information included in this report were subject to internal review and are believed to be correct at the time of reporting. Data reflects year-end calculations and may include divested assets until divestitures’ closing dates. For certain reporting elements, later changes in categorization could affect data after publication.

(1) Chesapeake calculates its reported emissions using EPA eGRID subregion emission factors.
(2) Calculation methodology revised for 2023 to better reflect accepted industry practice. Historical years shown here have been recalculated utilizing the new methodology interpretation to allow for consistent comparison.
