Helping to protect local biodiversity in Pakistan

Tullow’s EHS Policy clearly and explicitly empowers any individual to stop any activity at any time where there is an unacceptable risk of an accident or environmental incident. The practical application of this statement does not just apply to major issues, as demonstrated during a drilling operation in Pakistan during the year. The commitment of Tullow’s workforce to the environment and local biodiversity meant that work in the immediate area of a well was suspended until a small local species of turtle that was found near the site could be relocated to a new home nearby.
