Overall Impact

The relevance of a responsible energy transition has become even more clear in 2022. Alongside climate change, one of the major challenges of our time, the war in Ukraine and the aftermath of the pandemic led to increased energy price inflation and even disruptions in access to energy, impacting the world at large. SBM Offshore's material topics demonstrate the interests of SBM Offshore's stakeholders and the impact SBM Offshore's business has on the economy, the environment and society. SBM Offshore's vision, mission and strategy are framed by climate change mitigation − with clear net-zero commitments and a mission to reduce carbon and grow renewable energy. This business brings value to clients, employees and other stakeholders across the world. SBM Offshore also takes action to minimize potentially adverse impacts to people and the environment.

SBM Offshore has been able to balance ’business as usual’ against a back-drop of an increasingly turbulent geopolitical environment, at the same time making progress on safe, sustainable and affordable energy for generations to come.

SBM Offshore takes pride in being able to leverage SBM Offshore’s people’s capabilities to deal with complexity, develop technologies for the energy transition, deliver projects on time and within budget and operate assets safely and sustainably. In other words: sharing our experience to make it happen.
