PXP has a long history of environmental stewardship and safety. In fact, PXP was awarded the National Safety Council 2009 Industry Leader Award.

• The T-Ridge project was a result of an unprecedented, legally enforceable agreement between PXP and leading Santa Barbara region environmental groups.
• 60 percent of Californian environmentalists favor the T-Ridge project according to a recent statewide poll conducted by Fairbanks, Maslin, Maullin & Associates.
• PXP will convey approximately 3,900 acres of land to The Trust for Public Land (TPL), including approximately 3,700 acres adjacent to the Burton Mesa Ecological Reserve in the Lompoc Valley and up to 200 acres on the Gaviota Coast. These lands will be permanently protected for open space and public access.
• The T-Ridge project will include a legally enforceable “end date” which ends all PXP’s offshore oil production on four platforms and removes the associated onshore support facilties.
• By limiting the life of the platform operations, the T-Ridge “end date” significantly reduces the risk of an oil spill and protects California’s precious coastline and natural resources.
• All Greenhouse Gas emissions from the T-Ridge project will be mitigated or offset resulting in carbon neutrality.
• $1.5 million will be donated for technology to reduce Greenhouse Gases from transit vehicles in Santa Barbara County.
