Sustainability
Protecting People and Places
Through responsible energy waste management, carbon sequestration, environmental stewardship, safety, and other priority areas in our Sustainability program, we create value for the environment and the communities where we live and work. We know that right now and into the foreseeable future, finding and producing oil and gas will be vital to uplifting our society. It is our mission to Clean Up EnergySM and empower our industry by helping it operate in ways that go beyond compliance to eliminate negative impacts.
Environment
Protecting the environment is central to everything we do, from the way we design and build our facilities to where we locate them. Our slurry injection wells are the most environmentally secure waste sequestration option in existence. Our newly built landfills utilize the most advanced protective technologies and materials. Plus, we’ve placed our facilities near major production areas to minimize environmental impacts from waste transport.
Community
At Milestone, we pride ourselves on being good neighbors in every way. We design our facilities to readily accommodate excess truck traffic during surges to keep congestion off our community highways and byways. Milestone also gives back to the community by supporting those who need it the most. We have contributed time and funds to veterans assistance programs, local food pantries, first responders, and many other civic causes and nonprofits.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Diversity, equity, and inclusion is a key focus area of Milestone’s Sustainability program. As we endeavor to create a cleaner energy industry, we also aim to create a culture in which everyone is treated equally, regardless of their differences. Our executive leadership team fosters a sense of belonging and empowerment for all employees, and they encourage the cultivation of individual thoughts and opinions to enable new ideas, further innovation, and achieve strong business performance.
SAFETY RECORD
Our commitment to safety is reflected in our outstanding safety record.
- ZERO Total Recordable Incident Rate
- ZERO Fatality Rate
Safety
Our highest priority, always, is the safety of our employees, customers, contractors, and people in the surrounding communities. Our deeply ingrained safety culture empowers all those on the job to create a safe environment and stop work immediately if unsafe conditions arise. We provide extensive ongoing safety training and we continuously audit our protocols for adherence and improvement. Our goal every year is to achieve zero recordable incidents.
