Through a BMV Group solution, the company preserves an area of native forest and manages to remove 126 tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere
Sapura innovated in its area of operation and became the first Brazilian company specializing in subsea services to acquire the Green Treasury Sustainability Seal, a BMV Group solution that certifies that the company adheres to ESG (environmental, social and governance). To this end, the company offset the environmental footprint of its offices in the cities of Rio de Janeiro, Caxias and Rio das Ostras, in addition to making Sapura NET-Positive (a new way of doing business that gives back more to society, the environment and to the global economy from which it draws).
Through the BMV Group's solution, Sapura is avoiding the emission of 126 tons of carbon dioxide and preserving more than 1.658 m² of native forest. In addition, still keeping 43,45m³ of wood stored, 5.446L/Year of hydrological flow influenced by the preservation, and hundreds of species of fauna and flora are protected.
"To the sapura, it is a pride and a responsibility to be the first company in the industry to win the Green Treasure Sustainability Seal from the BMV. We seek to see ourselves as a reference in our environment, and inspiring good examples aimed at the environment and society is part of this. With the investment in the Green Treasury Sustainability seal, we acquired a competitive differential and generated a real environmental benefit by removing additional carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, in addition to the other 26 parameters included in the process”, emphasizes Sapura's CEO, Rogerio Salbego.
Born from a joint venture (j) between two multinational companies with unique importance in their markets: Seadrill and Sapura Energy, Sapura is one of the main players in the Brazilian subsea engineering market. And he decided to hire the BMV Group's solution to go beyond simply neutralizing the carbon emissions of his offices.
This investment is used to finance the preservation of native forest. For this, farmers join the BMV program and sign a commitment to preserve and protect the forest. Soon after, a team makes an inventory of the area, applying a methodology validated by scientists from the School of Economic Sciences at Unesp and registered with the UN (United Nations). Subsequently, the inventory is recorded in blockchain.
“It is a unique product that adapts to all the needs of companies and countries when it comes to ESG, allowing to generate a “net positive” in relation to carbon and incorporating other 26 environmental benefits, such as the preservation of fauna and flora species. ”, explains BMV Group economist, co-founder and chief operating officer (COO), Alessandra Umbelino.
