GLOSSARY2°C scenario (2DS) An energy system deployment pathway to facilitate an emissions trajectory consistent with at least a 50 per cent chance of limiting average global temperature increases to 2°C, by limiting the total emissions between 2015 and 2100 to 1,000 Gt CO2.

2P reserves The sum of Proved plus Probable Reserves. Probable Reserves are those reserves which analysis of geological and engineering data indicate are less likely to be recovered than Proved Reserves but more certain than Possible Reserves. There should be at least a 50 per cent probability that the quantities actually recovered will equal or exceed the best estimate of Proved Plus Probable Reserves.

Fugitive emissions Fugitive emissions are the gases that leak or are vented or flared during the extraction, production, processing, storage, transmission and distribution of fossil fuels such as coal, crude oil and natural gas. They can also be released from the landscape. The Australian regulatory definition for fugitives emissions, which has been applied to this report including for New Zealand, includes flaring but excludes landscape emissions.

HSE Management System Provides the means through which Origin’s health, safety and environment policy commitments are implemented.

Hydraulic fracture stimulation Creation and enhancement of fractures in rock using a gas or fluid injected at high pressure. It increases the ability of water and gas to flow through a coal seam, which enhances the removal of water and extraction of CSG.

IEA 450 Scenario An energy pathway consistent with limiting the global increase in temperature to 2°C by limiting the long term concentration of CO2 to 450 parts per million (a higher peak may occur around 2050).

IEA New Policies Scenario An energy pathway consistent with the intended nationally determined contribution submissions from countries prior to COP21.

Integrated Gas Origin’s Integrated Gas business is focused on finding and developing oil and gas (conventional) and coal seam gas (unconventional) reserves across Australia and New Zealand.
