PetroChina Adopts ESS' Environmental, Crisis Management Software
Implementation of Essential Suite™ represents a landmark for compliance and risk reduction in the People’s Republic of China.
TEMPE, Ariz. (PRWEB) November 2, 2005 -- PetroChina Company Limited (NYSE: PTR), the largest oil and gas producer in the People’s Republic of China, has awarded a contract to ESS, the leading Environmental, Health & Safety (EH&S) and Crisis Management company, for the first enterprise-wide compliance and crisis software implementation of its kind in the country, officials from both organizations announced today.
Under the agreement, Essential Suite™, the fully integrated, browser-based solution by ESS, will be used in 41 regional branches – each with between two and 10 factories – throughout China. The pilot phase of the implementation will be conducted at Dagang oilfield and the Dushanz petrochemical unit, said Wang Guangjun, Vice General Manager of the QHSE department at PetroChina.
“Our goal is to implement an EH&S information system that satisfies the business requirements of our environmental professionals and is consistent with the IT Master Plan of PetroChina,” said Mr. Wang. “Essential Suite will be used to build an effective EH&S system that is easy to implement and maintain – a system that we can leverage to improve management skills and decision making in our EH&S business.”
Robert Johnson, CEO of ESS, said, “PetroChina’s use of enterprise EH&S and Crisis Management software represents a major breakthrough in environmental compliance and operational risk management in China. With this enterprise-wide implementation of Essential Suite, PetroChina assumes the leadership role there for corporate social, environmental and financial responsibility in areas including greenhouse gas reduction programs, improved worker safety, enhanced emergency management and pollution prevention.”
A very comprehensive selection of Essential Suite modules have been chosen for the implementation. Included are Essential Compliance Manager™, Essential Task Manager™, Essential Air™, Essential Water™, Essential Waste™, Essential FEMS™ and Essential Incident Master™. ESS is collaborating with IBM Global Services and Chinese partner Tsinghua Solutions on the project.
