About the report
We focus here on sustainability measures of material significance for us, and seek to provide our stakeholders with a balanced presentation of 2007.
Both Statoil and Hydro had a reputation for good results in sustainable development, and both were ranked among the world leaders in their categories for several years by the Dow Jones Sustainability Index (DJSI). We in StatoilHydro continue to give priority to sustainable solutions.
Statoil and Hydro published their first sustainability reports in 2002, covering results for 2001. Hydro’s was incorporated in its annual report under the title “viability performance”. The companies separately launched the last reports in March 2007.
As a new group, we will continue to produce a separate sustainability report annually. From this year, it will comprise two versions. The paper edition presents a selection of the challenges posed and opportunities offered in the sustainability area, while the main report can be found on our website at www.statoilhydro.com.
The whole printed report is available on the internet, broken down into chapters and as a single document downloaded in PDF format. For more detailed information on our operations in 2007, see our two other reports – the annual report and the annual report in 20-F format.
A growing number of companies are producing sustainability reports, which helps to create more consistent reporting in this area across industry segments. We report in accordance with the G3 guidelines from the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI).
A list of the GRI parameters we report, and where they can be found, is provided in the web edition.
Our health, safety and environmental (HSE) reporting is also based on the oil and gas industry guidance on voluntary sustainability reporting from the International Petroleum Industry Environmental Conservation Association (Ipieca).
