Corporate responsibility 


It matters how we do business

Natural gas is our business. We are a rapidly growing company,with expertise throughout the gas chain. We are a leading natural gas company in the global energy market – operating responsibly and delivering outstanding value to our shareholders.

Corporate Responsibility (CR) is a widely used term which is open to many interpretations. In BG Group, CR describes our core approach to business, and means putting our Business Principles into practice. Our aim is adherence to the highest standards of business conduct, world-class treatment of our people and contractors, good relationships with communities and exemplary environmental performance.

We believe that successful partnerships with host countries and communities are an essential part of creating good and sustainable returns for shareholders.
