Macro-Directives

Proposal for Sustainability Directives for Petrobras’ Exploration and Production Activities in the Amazon Region

The Macro-directives, the General Directives and the Specific Directives are presented below. The General and Specific Directives were organized in accordance with the dimensions (environmental and social) and with the critical themes to which they are related. The application of the directives should consider the interrelations and overlapping impacts from a systemic standpoint.

MACRO-DIRECTIVES

The environmental, social and economic variables should be considered with equal levels of priority in the evaluation of undertakings and operations in the Amazon region;

All of the undertakings and operations should have as their primary consideration the minimization of interference in the natural and ethnic/cultural processes and the promotion of social inclusion;

The concept of sustainability should be considered in all of the stages of the life cycle of undertakings (planning, implementation/construction, operation/maintenance, decommissioning and post-decommissioning).
