Spill prevention
We are focused on preventing spills and, if a spill does occur, ensuring a rapid, comprehensive response.
In pursuit of our goal of zero spills to land and water, we continually develop and improve risk management, operations integrity, spill prevention processes and containment capabilities by:
- Increasing spill awareness through training
- Learning from past incidents
- Upgrading key equipment
- Carrying out inspections and surveillance programs
See our oil and chemical spills data in the most recent Sustainability Report.
