Sustainable Development
Designing and delivering a project of this scale comes with clear responsibilities. In Papua New Guinea, where ecosystems are rich and communities are closely connected to their land, how the Project is developed matters as much as what it delivers.
Papua LNG integrates environmental and social considerations into every stage of its development, from climate and biodiversity to community engagement and governance. This section sets out the frameworks, standards and actions that guide the Project, as well as the systems in place to monitor performance and ensure accountability over time.
