Analysis of Environmental Management and Planning in the Oil and Gas

The actions that have a great likelihood of triggering environmental accidents, like in the petrochemical zone, it is sensible to imagine the environmental management to be a significant variable within the corporation’s tactical arrangement. Nonetheless, this is not every time correct. In some circumstances, an alteration in the companies’ policy, leaving a responsive situation and supposing a proactive one, only occurs upon the incidence of serious environmental coincidences with strong effect in the television. For the company that was the object of study, these coincidences provided rise to deep fluctuations in its environmental management, terminating in investments of about US$ 2. 61 billion in environment, healthiness and safety, from 2011 to 2015. This was the highest volume to date invested on these regions by an oil company. This case study seeks to discuss the integration between environmental management and strategic planning in the petrochemical zone over a period of 10 years (from 2005 to 2015) in order to make a contextual analysis of the period before and after the environmental accidents possible.
