In todayâs low oil price environment, it might be surprising to learn that the nationâs largest independent oil producer is still actively pursuing sustainability. Sustainable development is about conducting our business to promote economic growth, a healthy environment and vibrant communities, now and into the future. Sustainable development at ConocoPhillips encompasses our environmental performance, stakeholder relations, and responsible operations. To achieve true sustainability, benefits should extend to economic, environmental and social performance. The impact of sustainability will be discussed through an overview of case studies ranging from improved water management to reducing emissions to show how sustainability is smart business. The presentation will show how sustainability is an integral part of ConocoPhillips and covers the life of an asset, from new country entry to decommissioning.
