Water management
Water is an essential resource for society and the environment, and we recognize the role Imperial plays in preserving water quality and the supply of freshwater where we operate -
Land use and biodiversity
Imperial operates in a variety of ecosystems, some with sensitive characteristics. We strive to mitigate potential impacts to ecosystems and the value those ecosystems provide, working to conserve and restore land and biodiversity through progressive reclamation and habitat restoration.
-
Progressive reclamation
Imperial’s goal is to return disturbed land to equivalent land capability, leaving behind self-sustaining ecosystems that support wildlife and traditional Indigenous uses. -
Decommissioning and remediation
We manage properties from start to finish, before the first well, refinery, gas station or renewable diesel manufacturing complex goes up and long after operations end. -
Tailings
Fluid tailings are common to all surface mining operations and are made up of the water, clay, sand and residual bitumen that is left over when the bitumen is separated from the sand. -
Waste management
Imperial recognizes the importance of properly managing waste to minimize potential impact to the environment while using resources more efficiently.
