Management in the attention and recovery of areas

In compliance with current national environmental regulations, Ecopetrol SA has an HSE management system and internal standards that allow it to establish and implement the actions required to deal with hydrocarbon spills and harmful substances associated with its value chain, among which they find each other:

For incidents of operational origin

For incidents by third parties

The convenience of undertaking activities to recover or correct contaminated areas or damage to third parties is evaluated on a case-by-case basis.

 

This is how from 2019 to 2022 Ecopetrol S.A. has deployed and developed the aforementioned activities such as spill control, cleaning and final recovery of 35,621 m2 of impacted areas, included in the environmental recovery plans and associated with 18 incidents greater than one barrel of hydrocarbon, of which 15,845 m2 correspond to 2022. Currently Ecopetrol S.A. continues to advance in the environmental recovery of the Lisama 158 incident in compliance with the environmental recovery plan and monitoring and control measures established by the environmental authority and detailed in the Biodiversity and ecosystem services link.

 

Of the five (5) incidents due to operational causes, with hydrocarbon spills greater than one barrel that occurred during the 2021 term, and the three (3) occurred in 2022, the progress in the execution of the respective environmental recovery plans has been reported in a timely manner, responding to the monitoring and control requirements to the competent environmental authorities.
