Security

Although security risks cannot be eliminated, we believe they can be managed. ConocoPhillips has invested millions of additional dollars to respond to potential threats to our operations around the world. Through systematic security audits by specially trained personnel, ConocoPhillips continuously monitors and assesses possible threats arising from malicious action and implements a variety of preventive measures for the safety and security of our personnel and operations.

As an operator of critical infrastructure in many challenging locations around the world, ConocoPhillips works closely with governmental agencies, nongovernmental organizations and local communities on initiatives to identify, prevent, detect, deter and mitigate potential terrorist attacks and other threats to company personnel and facilities. ConocoPhillips’ facilities are compliant with the Maritime Transportation Security Act, the International Ship and Port Facility Security Code, U.S. Customs Trade Partnership Against Terrorism standards and all other applicable governmental security requirements.

Consistent with our view that the security of our operations is directly tied to the security of the communities in which we operate, ConocoPhillips helped draft the Voluntary Principles on Security and Human Rights and continues to aspire to its dual goals of advancing security and human rights.
