Environment and community
IGas Energy fully recognises the concerns that members of the public may have about how oil and gas production may impact the environment. We are fully committed to preserving the environment and providing safe and healthy working conditions for our employees and contractors alike. We strictly adhere to formal Environmental and Safety Management Systems. These systems outline the responsibilities of managers and staff and are administered by full-time Health, Safety and Environment Managers within each of our operating subsidiaries. Our systems are reviewed annually and our subject to ongoing audit, review and reporting.
We are aware that our oil and gas producing sites are situated in environmentally sensitive areas of Great Britain. We are committed to preserving these landscapes and work closely with planning authorities and local people to minimise the environmental and visual impact of our operations.
Our wells are located inside specially designated areas whereby any hydrocarbon spill is contained and easily cleaned up without encroaching on the underlying ground.
Abandonment of produced fields is undertaken on the basis of returning the landscape to its original condition. We take special care to eradicate any evidence of hydrocarbon extraction activities.
We are committed to maintaining close and responsive relationships within the communities in which we operate. If you live close to an IGas Energy operation and want to discuss any issue of concern, please either email enquiries@igasplc.com or call 020 7993 9901.
