Description
The collection, collation, and reporting of upstream environmental information has been a central part of the IOGP work programme since 1998. IOGP Member Companies are invited to submit data relating to their exploration and production activities on an annual basis. Submitted data are compiled, analysed, and reported in the annual Environmental Performance Indicators Report. This programme allows participating Member Companies to compare their performance with other companies in the sector leading, it is hoped, to improved and more efficient performance. The programme also contributes to the industry’s wish to be more transparent about its operations. This document provides companies participating in the data collection programme with the categories, definitions, exclusions, and examples needed to provide the right information.
