本稿は「脱炭素化された石油」という概念の批判的レビューであり、石油・ガス企業がネットゼロ目標と生産継続を両立させるために用いる言説を分析する。メタン削減やCCSなどの技術は部分的な排出削減に寄与するが、ライフサイクル全体での脱炭素化にはならず、最終用途の燃焼や絶対排出量から注意をそらすと論じる。脱炭素化された石油は、気候解決策ではなく、政治的な物語として理解すべきだと結論付ける。

English

This critical review examines the concept of 'decarbonized oil' used by oil and gas actors to reconcile production with net-zero goals. It argues that technologies like methane abatement and CCS reduce only operational emissions, not full lifecycle, shifting focus from end-use combustion and absolute emissions. The paper concludes that decarbonized oil is a contested political narrative rather than a climate solution.

📝 gxceed 編集解説 — Why this matters

日本のGX文脈において

日本のGX政策では、石油・ガス業界の移行戦略やCCS/水素への期待が高まるが、本稿は技術的解決策への過信に警鐘を鳴らす。日本のエネルギー政策や企業のネットゼロ宣言を批判的に検討する上で示唆に富む。

In the global GX context

This paper contributes to global debates on transition finance and corporate net-zero claims by exposing the limits of technological fixes in the oil and gas sector. It is relevant for policymakers and investors assessing the credibility of low-carbon oil narratives under frameworks like TCFD and ISSB.

👥 読者別の含意

🔬研究者:Provides a critical framework for analyzing corporate climate narratives and the political economy of decarbonization.

🏢実務担当者:Highlights risks of over-relying on technological fixes in transition strategies; useful for scenario planning and disclosure.

🏛政策担当者:Informs policy on fossil fuel phase-down and the integrity of net-zero commitments.

📄 Abstract（原文）

ABSTRACT The idea of “decarbonized oil” has become increasingly visible in climate, energy, and corporate transition debates as oil and gas actors seek to reconcile continued fossil fuel production with net‐zero commitments. This article offers a critical narrative review of the concept, asking what political work the idea of decarbonized oil performs in the climate crisis. Drawing on 52 sources selected from an initial screening of 2518 papers and documents, the review examines climate‐limit literature, oil and gas emissions‐reduction pathways, corporate and institutional transition materials, and critical social science scholarship. It argues that while technologies such as methane abatement, flaring reduction, electrification, refinery efficiency, carbon capture and storage, blue hydrogen, and offsets may reduce selected operational emissions, they do not decarbonize oil across its full lifecycle. The review shows that low‐carbon oil claims often shift attention from end‐use combustion, absolute emissions, and fossil fuel phase‐down toward emissions intensity, technological fixes, and corporate legitimacy. The article concludes that decarbonized oil is better understood as a contested political narrative than a settled climate solution.
