Managing Environmental Impacts

Saipem is aware that all of its activities - from planning and engineering phases, through to operational activities on site – have the potential to affect the environment as well as local communities.

The goal of Saipem Corporate’s Environmental Awareness Campaign is to make Saipem people working around the world aware of the most important environmental issues. The campaign is based on specific topics concerning the main potential environmental impacts arising from Saipem’s operational activities.
The topics selected for the Corporate Campaign are the following:

  • Energy saving
  • Oil spill prevention
  • Waste segregation
  • Water saving and reuse
  • Ecological footprint minimization
