Sustainable Development
Stakeholder Value Creation
PTTEP conducts its business as a responsible corporate member of society to observe the laws of Thailand and the countries where we operate. We strongly support the fundamental human rights in line with the legitimate role of business and give proper regard to health, safety, security and environment consistent with commitment to contribute to sustainable development. Our sustainable social development strategy focuses on engaging with and creating value for stakeholders. In 2017, PTTEP commences to strategically implement the social development project into 3 categories as follows:
1. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)
2. Creating Shared Value (CSV)
3. Social Enterprise (SE)
Our social development projects and philanthropic activities are managed under the existing group-wide Policies, Guideline and Standards. PTTEP strategy is to focus on community investment rather than charitable donation and commercial initiative. In 2019 PTTEP spent USD 11.16 Million in social investment whereas the cost of In-kind giving is at USD 1.18 Million. PTTEP management and staff spent 11,196 volunteering hours on community program during working hours which is equivalent to USD 0.20 Million. The management overhead is at USD 3.09 Million.
PTTEP’s strategic execution is divided into two levels i.e. Macro and Micro Levels. At a macro level, the company focuses on restoring marine resources by building up networks for the conservation and hatchery of economic aquatic animals and activities that shall reduce ocean trash. At a micro level, social development projects are implemented in response to the community needs. All community and social development projects are in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs) as follows:
1. Conserve and Sustainably Use the Oceans Seas and Marine Resources for Sustainable DevelopmentPTTEP restores marine natural resources of the Thai sea through the Aquatic Animal Hatchery Learning Center and the establishment of Conservation Network to raise the awareness of sustainable use of resources. In the future, it has been planned to set up a Sea Turtle Hospital in Songkhla Province and support the planting and maintenance of mangrove forest. This will become a nursery and habitat for numerous marine larvae.
2.Good Health and Well-being
PTTEP takes care of health and sanitation of underprivileged communities who have limited access to medical services. To promote good health and well-being for people at all ages, LKC (Layanan Kesehatan Cuma-Cuma) or free health service in Indonesia, Lan Krabue Hospital Project in Thailand and PTTEP Mobile Health Check Project in Myanmar are implemented for the benefit of the communities and the public in general.
3.Affordable and Clean EnergyPTTEP promotes the use of cost effective and sustainable energy source, with a specific focus on alternative energy, among communities in our operations areas. Waste to Energy Project does not only generate methane as cooking gas for community but also manages kitchen waste effectively. This project reduces cost of household cooking gas and, on top of that, communities get bio-fertilizer by product which is generated from bio-gas kit for their garden. Up to 2019, 241 bio-gas kits have been installed in communities in the Sinphuhorm operations area in Udonthani Province. Furthermore, a learning center has been set up in Tab Hai Village to share knowledge to other communities. Given this success, the company replicates this project to communities in Zawtika operations area in Myanmar.
3.Quality Education
PTTEP supports equal access to education by providing scholarships to students in primary school to undergraduate programs in all operations areas. In Indonesia, the company supports Beastudi Etos Indonesia-Scholarship Project, a human resource investment providing opportunity to the underprivileged potential high school students to continue their studies in engineering and medicine. Besides, the company supports SIOLA Integrated Holistic Early Childhood Development Center Project which provides holistic services for children’s growth and development by integrating parental counseling services on health, nutrition, child protection and household economic management.
In Thailand, PTTEP, together with PTT Group, established Kamnoetvidya Science Academy School (KVIS) and Vidyasirimedhi Institute of Science and Technology (VISTEC) to upgrade the education as well as science and technology research, enhancing the competitiveness for sustainable development of the country.
