Environment
Alaska’s oil and gas industry holds itself to the highest standard of environmental protection in the conduct of its operations. This commitment to environmental protection starts at the pre-planning stage, with habitat mapping to ensure sensitive areas are protected and continues through the operational phases. Extensive wildlife studies are conducted to ensure sensitive habitats, wildlife and cultural resources are preserved. Technological advancements over the 40-year history of oil and gas development in Alaska have resulted in an overwhelming decrease in the "footprint" of facilities, while at the same time enhancing oil and gas recovery.
We invite you to learn more about Alaska’s wildlife populations, the environment in which the Alaska industry operates and the role ongoing advancements in technology plays in development of Alaska’s oil and gas resources.
The highest standard of environmental protection is carried out each day in Alaska oil and gas operations.
