4. Rethinking the value chain

1. Redefining raw materials

2. Process efficiency and innovation

Incorporating alternative raw materials into the production of our products.

E.g., using CO2 to make plastics; external waste flows as a raw material for refining processes.

Maximizing water reuse, minimizing water discharge, and increasing energy efficiency.

E.g., using municipal wastewater in Refining; alternative uses for production water in Upstream; recovering diesel from drilling waste and steam condensate.

Recover waste as a raw material, product, or energy.

E.g., using sludge from water treatment plants in process units; using waste as fertilizer.

Seeking new business opportunities.

E.g., using pyrolysis products to chemically recycle landfill plastics.

E.g., corporate car-sharing based on renewable electric energy.

ECODISEÑO

Developing products that are more sustainable during production, use, and end of useful life.

E.g., 100% recyclable asphalts.
