Our sustainability report is intended to address what we view as material environmental, social and governance sustainability-related issues. In assessing the material topics to address in our sustainability report, we considered feedback from internal and external stakeholders, including customers, investors, trade associations and industry groups, and engaged with external sustainability resources for feedback and benchmarking purposes. In particular, we considered recent feedback regarding various disclosure frameworks and elected to align our disclosures following the frameworks set forth by the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) (Oil & Gas – Exploration and Production) and Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosures (TCFD).

We have also included disclosures on additional topics not covered by SASB and TCFD in response to stakeholder feedback and are included in the Disclosure Reports.
