Upstream CI values are modelled on a marginal basis and are published monthly. Carbon Intensity Premiums are assessed daily. Venezuela’s Orinoco Belt upstream marginal carbon intensity is calculated using only the Hamaca basin.
*Upstream marginal CI number is assessed from the field to the storage terminal. **Transport CI is calculated from storage terminal to refinery gate and for shipping routes assumes an Aframax vessel.
