P-all consultants Staatsolie Maatschappij Suriname N.V. PESIA Weg naar Zee 2D Seismic 2012 In ARPEL’s Code of Environmental Conduct the following is stated: “ARPEL Member Companies are fully conscious that the self-sustained development (of Latin America in general and of its hydrocarbons industry in particular) can and must be accompanied with actions aimed at environmental protection, in compliance with the regulatory framework in force in each country, based on scientific grounds and respect for the community, as well as on risk analyses and environmental cost/benefit. Consequently, ARPEL Member Companies have established as an objective to continuously improve their environmental management systems and to develop their operations under principles that reflect the adequate application of the highest level of environmental practices”. 2.5.2.2 Clean Caribbean & Americas In 1977 eight oil companies operating in the Caribbean and Latin America formed the Clean Caribbean Cooperative (CCC), now known as the Clean Caribbean & Americas (CCA), with the objective of enhancing the capability to promptly and efficiently respond to marine oil spills in the region. Since then the CCA has grown to include most of the major international oil companies and oil related facilities in the Caribbean region, among which is Staatsolie in Suriname. These companies have agreed to jointly support and fund the CCA in its mission to: “Develop and maintain immediately accessible oil spill response resources and support for Members through a ready equipment stockpile and a trained contractor network; and promote training, coordination, and logistics planning with industries and governments in the Area of Interest”. 2.5.2.3 International Association of Oil and Gas Producers In the international oil exploration and production industry, the guidelines and standards of the International Association of Oil and Gas Producers (OGP – formerly the Oil Industry International Exploration and Production Forum) are particularly influential. The OGP represents oil and gas companies from around the world. The OGP has prepared several guidelines regarding onshore oil operations, on its own and in conjunction with organizations such as UNEP and IUCN. The OGP has recommended the use of EIA in a number of its guidelines. These guidelines, which represent “internationally acceptable operating practices” and “internationally acceptable goals and guidance on environmental protection during oil and gas exploration and production operations”, fully endorse the EIA process, and provide recommendations and guidance to oil companies on the EIA process. A key development in the EIA process as it applies to oil and gas companies is the expectation that companies will assess the impacts of oil and gas development not merely on the physical environment, but also on local and indigenous peoples. Among others special guidelines have been developed addressing oil operations in tropical rainforests and exploration and production operations in mangrove areas, and 20

The Bank’s Guidelines: (1) set maximum levels for liquid effluents, air emissions and noise levels, which are those “normally acceptable to the World Bank Group in making decisions regarding provisions of World Bank Group assistance”; (2) describe industry practices, processes that can reduce, prevent and control pollution, and treatment technologies; (3) make recommendations for monitoring and reporting; and (4) summarize the key production and control practices that will lead to compliance with emissions requirements. 2.6 STAATSOLIE HSE POLICY The PESIA furthermore meets the Health, Safety and Environmental principles as outlined in the HSE policy of Staatsolie: • prevention of all incidents • compliance with all applicable health, safety and environmental legislative requirements • continual improvement of the company’s health, safety and environmental performance • prevention of environmental pollution Staatsolie is member of ARPEL and further emphasizes the importance of working to internationally recognized oil and gas standards like those of OGP, and relevant standards and guidelines of the World Bank.
