HSE PolicyOur guidelines for a safe future
Our position as a leading company in oil and gas exploration and production makes us keenly aware of our social responsibility. For this reason, occupational health, safety at work, and environmental protection are given top priority. Our guidelines to protect these values (health, safety, and environmental protection = HSE) are therefore a core element of how we see ourselves and are an important embodiment of the key objectives of our Company.


Policy for Health, Safety and Environment Protection (HSE)
As an important member of the BASF Group, Wintershall operates in the area of exploration and production of oil and gas. In this Wintershall combines financial success with societal accountability and protection of the environment.
Therefore Wintershall's management is strongly committed to adhere to the following HSE-principles:
Economic success does not prevail over health, safety or environmental issues. Nothing is so urgent or important, that justifies neglecting these HSE principles.
