Environmental protection

ExxonMobil’s diverse portfolio of projects requires us to work in remote and sensitive environments, including deepwater and biodiverse locations. Our environmental management approach is guided by an understanding of the potential environmental impacts of our operations and a commitment to sustainably develop, maintain and operate projects using appropriate standards that enable us to ‘Protect Tomorrow. Today.’

exxonmobil's role

Protecting sensitive ecosystems

We employ a comprehensive process to understand the aspects of our activities and how these interact with the environmental settings in which we operate. This process also provides a framework to identify actions we can take to avoid, reduce or remedy significant adverse impacts to ecosystems and the communities that they support. Monitoring programs are designed and undertaken to evaluate our performance and identify areas for improvement.
