PJSC LUKOIL released its Sustainability Report for 2020 prepared in line with the international and industry standards, such as GRI, SASB, UNCTAD and IPIECA.

For each area of ESG activities the report includes information about the Company's contribution into the achievement of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

In accordance with the standards, material topics of the Report were selected on the basis of stakeholders' requests. The document covers activities of the Company in the area of the climate agenda, environmental protection and external social policy.

The report also covers sustainability activities of the Company in most sensitive regions such as the Arctic and the Republic of Komi.

This year the report provides information about new aspects such as tax policy, anti-corruption policy and application of the sustainable development principles in foreign upstream projects.

In addition, the report contains extended data on greenhouse gas emissions, consumption of gas, water and electrical power, land remediation and waste management.
