Our client was tasked with preparing their oil and gas company’s first combined annual and sustainability report and needed to complete a first draft for editorial formatting and review within a three-month timeframe. The client sought external support to help pull together information to align with Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) and other standards and to help build a more formal strategy for future sustainability reporting.
Solution
Antea Group began an intense, month-long process of data collection, on-site and telephone interviews, narrative development, and GRI alignment. Our GRI specialists mapped the entire report and content to the GRI Standards, and the company was able to release a Core compliant report on time for the release of annual financials.
In addition to the formal report, Antea Group provided a robust environmental social governance (ESG) data summary with sources cited; a map of material data relevant to GRI, the relevant Sustainability Accounting Standards Board standard, the CDP Climate and Water questionnaires, and the RobecoSAM Corporate Sustainability Assessment questionnaire; and a materiality assessment refresh for future strategy development and report preparation.
