The sustainability statements cover our upstream and downstream value chain as the related impacts, risks, and opportunities have been identified and assessed in our DMA. Selected policies, actions, and targets extend to our value chain, where relevant.

When scoring sustainability risks and opportunities, we assessed the potential 'magnitude' of possible financial effects on, for example, revenue, CAPEX or OPEX, which constitutes one part of the score, and the 'likelihood of occurrence', which constitutes the other part. The possible financial effects of the individual risks and opportunities were assessed through sustainability-matter-specific scenarios, operationalised through stress tests. Mitigation measures put in place are reflected in either the magnitude or likelihood of the assessed scenarios. Some scenarios were assessed quantitatively. In cases where a quantitative assessment was not possible or insufficient, qualitative assessments were used to supplement or inform the magnitude of the risk or opportunity. This approach was necessary due to the complexity of defining exact values for potential sustainability scenarios. For risks and opportunities, we consolidated the score by assigning weights over the short-, medium-, and long-term horizons. The weights were evenly distributed or adjusted to emphasise either the short term or medium and long term.
