Sustainability at Chevron Australia

Focusing on research into new energies, however there is room for improvement here too.

Clean energy is the number 1 focus for Chevron today.

We are doing the world's largest carbon capture storage - it is an incredibly technically challenging project but it is critical to the future of the world as carbon offsets is not enough for us to reach net zero.

Our motto is higher returns, lower carbon. Just look up the CO2 project on Barrow Island, we have also just invested $300 million in a local renewable energy company

In some areas they have made great strides, in others it is not a high priority.

Development of carbon capture and sequestration projects as well as a New Energies team which looks into greener future opportunities.

From what I know of, we do a lot of work in that space. We're got the biggest carbon sequestration facility in the southern hemisphere (at least, it might be the biggest on in the world at the moment), and incredibly tight quarantine regulations in place on our Gorgon site (which is on a nature reserve). While much of the work we do is mandated in some form, we also have a lot of R&D work going on about how we can reduce impacts of our business on the environment.

Specific waste bins are labelled and placed in all floors in the kitchens, printing opportunities are limited and are automatically set to black & white and double sided. There are options for people to ride bikes, catch public transport and walk to work. We are encouraged to come up with green initiatives for the company.
