IPIECA will be attending World Water Week 2012 in Stockholm and as part of the Water Task Force’s efforts to communicate both the Global and Local water tools; IPIECA is hosting a side-event. The side event is entitled “Energy Sector Advancements in Managing Water Impacts and Risks “and is in collaboration with WBCSD and CH2M HILL.

The side event will provide an overview of the IPIECA Global Water Tool for Oil and Gas and the GEMI Local Water Tool for Oil and Gas, both of which aim to help companies and organizations to better understand and manage water issues, local communities and the environment. Additionally, representatives from IPIECA member companies will share management learnings via case studies in implementation of the tools.
