– Assuring competence and capacity in line with our growth strategy and high level of activity.
– Further strengthening our QHSSE culture and working environment.
– Ensuring efficient risk management processes.
– Focusing high attention on security and cyber security threats.
In 2024 we will continue to work systematically with ESG to fully understand new applicable ESG laws and regulations, educating and supporting internal stakeholders to satisfy the requirements, and ensuring transparency and compliance.
