"Every day, the Olympus team works to produce natural gas in the most efficient and environmentally responsible manner possible. This certification validates our commitment," Tim Dugan, President and CEO of Olympus Energy, said. "We're deeply proud of the results achieved by doing things the right way and continually seek innovative approaches to unlock even better ESG performance."
Project Canary's high-fidelity, rigorous 800+ data point analysis of existing well sites represents the industry's most comprehensive assessment program. Olympus' low-methane verified environmental attribute performance alongside key initiatives including upgrading local infrastructure voluntarily, holding transparent community dialogue, establishing and practicing an industry-leading emergency response program, water recycling initiatives, and building a wildlife habitat area contributed to the company's top ratings.
"Major domestic and international utilities are seeking the premium Certified Responsibly Sourced Gas producers like Olympus are offering. Net-zero requires solutions for low-methane verified environmental attributes and freshwater use, among other ESG markers," said Chris Romer, Co-founder and CEO of Project Canary. "Not often do we see a producer achieve best-in-class ratings across-the-board like Olympus has. It's a credit to their industry leadership for making environmental integrity fundamental to the business."
Olympus was the first integrated exploration and production company to seek complete upstream and midstream certification, with the Hyperion Midstream review beginning in July.
