Report Highlights - Petrobras back in number one position.

Petrobras is the world’s most sustainable oil/gas company according to the 5th annual oil/gas ranking. Petrobras, was re-elected to the Dow Jones Sustainability Index, an indicator where StatoilHydro holds the industry record of 79 points. Petrobras´ Board consists of all independent directors, except the CEO.

The Brazilian company's “Zero Hunger Program” entered into 18.000 partnerships helping nearly 11 million people over the past four years. BP rebounded following the 2005 explosion in its Texas City complex, oil spills in Alaska and the resignation of its former CEO Lord Browne, investing $1,7 billion in its U.S. operations for “integrity and reliability”.

 

According to the report, companies with the poorest governance and sustainability practices generally controlled the largest oil/gas reserves. The three state corporations PDVSA, Saudi Aramco and Abu Dhabi NOC in part scored zero in governance but together control 430 billion barrels of oil, compared with ConocoPhilips´ 9,4 billion or ExxonMobil's 22,7 billion.
