We believe that excellence in the field of business is mixed with voluntary commitment to preserve and protect the valuable human and environmental resources and assets, which are irrefutable necessities for business success, corporate responsibility and fortunate contribution in sustainable development. Social responsibility approach in Petropars is considered as a tool for strategic management and effective management of risks and opportunities. Petropars has been committed to preserve the social and environmental sustainability. It also has set as one of the most important goals of organizational excellence and as the case of its social accountability to leave pure land for posterity and for achieving this aspiration has taken appropriate measures according to the laws, regulations and relevant national and international standards. It has followed the HSE legal requirements and, wherever it is possible, acted beyond these requirements and will be responsive to the concerns of interest groups.We believe that industrial and economic developments have to be accompanied with conservation of living species and no contamination of ecosystems, as well as preventing adverse impact to social environments. Therefore, we have been seeking to provide necessary infrastructures to adopt control management plans and monitoring of these factors by doing a comprehensive studies on Environmental, Social, and Health Impact Assessment (ESHIA) in the susceptible area of onshore and offshore facilities, and by identifying and reducing these effects.
