Chevron Nigeria Limited (CNL), operator of the joint venture between the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) and (CNL -NNPCL/CNL JV) has dismissed media reports falsely associating it to environmental degradation.
Chevron, in a statement by its General Manager, Policy, Government and Public Affairs, Esimaje Brikinn, reaffirmed its commitment to environmental stewardship in its Nigeria operations.
Brikinn said Chevron’s operations are conducted with sound environmental management practices in strict compliance with applicable laws and regulatory requirements.
“CNL places the highest priority on and remains committed to the safety of the people and the environment in its areas of operation.
“CNL’s efforts in environmental stewardship have continued to be recognised and applauded in the Nigerian oil and gas industry,” he stated.
According to him, CNL has a long history of working in collaboration with regulators and relevant stakeholders to identify and protect biodiversity in its areas of operation.
