Reducing our impact on the environment

As a global producer, exporter and consumer of energy, our challenge is to meet the demand for our resources from around the globe and reduce our impact on our environment. 

Engaging on climate change

We are committed to managing the risks associated with climate change. Our social and economic responsibility is to constructively engage on climate change issues and understand the risks and opportunities. This ensures we can reduce our own impact on the environment and make a positive international contribution.

Managing our water use

We have a large global footprint and take the responsibility for managing our environmental impact very seriously. Water is an essential resource for all of our operations and production can be impacted by both quality and quantity of water available.  More importantly, the communities within which we operate rely on having access to clean, safe drinking water. This is critical to sustaining local health, industry and a sound environment.

Enhancing biodiversity and land management

We enhance biodiversity protection by assessing and considering ecological values and land-use aspects in investment, operational and closure activities. Securing access to land and managing it effectively are essential components of our commitment to operate in a responsible manner.
