sustainable community investments and how to measure their success.

Guide to Operating in Areas of Conflict for the Oil & Gas Industry The purpose of this Guide is to provide, in a simple and accessible format, basic
guidance on risk assessment and risk management in conflict settings that oil and gas
companies might face. These include conflicts between companies and local
communities which are directly related to the presence and operations of the
companies themselves, as well as wider social and political conflicts in which
companies are not directly involved but which are very likely to impact on companies
operating in such conflict environments.
