Culture of Leadership

Through  history, Tanager has been committed to strong corporate responsibility practices. We believe successful corporate responsibility must begin with a commitment from our board of directors and senior management. Our vision includes objectives to be a leader in the oil and gas industry, and we believe this translates into operating our business ethically and responsibly.

The Corporate Responsibility Report is a means to communicate with our stakeholders, as well as a tool to measure and monitor our performance in environment, health and safety, community involvement and employee management.

 

ENVIRONMENT

At Tanager, we are dedicated to minimizing the impact our operations have on the environment. We understand responsible management is an integral part of strong corporate citizenship, and we approach it strategically and progressively. We continuously aim to exceed regulation through the implementation of proactive and innovative projects. Here are some examples of how Tanager is working to protect our land, water and air.

AIR

Eco-Efficiency Program

Tanager’s Eco-Efficiency Program, focuses on funding energy efficiency projects and emerging technologies throughout Tanager’s operations. This includes projects that reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, reduce fuel and electricity consumption, and utilize waste products while maintaining reliability and maximizing production.

An independent budget and distinct project parameters have been set for the program. Eligible projects must be measurable and economically feasible.

WATER

Frac-Water Recycling

Tanager is very conscientious about  developing the process of frac-water recycling to treat and recycle water used in the production of tight gas reserves.  Tanager’s goal is to  apply water recycling to fracturing The result of the process would be  a decreased demand on the local water supply, and a reduced need for transportation and disposal of flow-back water

LAND

Tanager’s goal, should it become necessary, is to  treat hydrocarbon contaminated soil. The process uses turning of the soil piles, aeration, fertilizers and nutrients to facilitate the biodegradation of the hydrocarbons. As a result of the treatment, previously contaminated soil may be returned to the original site or to another formerly contaminated site, saving the soil from being disposed of in a landfill.   This soil that would have otherwise gone to the landfill.
