Corporate social responsibility
In fulfilling its missions, SNH ensures strict compliance with the legal provisions governing environmental protection. Therefore, all hydrocarbon exploration and production activities are subject to the completion of a prior environmental and social impact assessment, which presents in particular the incidence of such activities on the environment and mitigation measures envisaged to preserve the ecosystem balance.
SNH supports the national education community through several actions. Thus, thanks to the “Excellence Award” operation, the Company contributes to improving the supply of textbooks and computer equipment in the libraries and multimedia centres of the best public secondary schools in the ten regions of Cameroon, according to the rankings of the Office du Baccalauréat du Cameroun and the GCE Board.
It also encourages deserving students from various parts of the country through awards ceremonies. The main beneficiaries are the pupils of schools located near operation sites or hosting oil infrastructures in the South-West, the Littoral, the South and the Far North regions.
SNH works for the preservation of Cameroon’s cultural heritage and the development of art in Cameroon. In this context, it sponsors major local and international cultural events, including festivals organised by the indigenous people of Kribi (Mayi), the Bamoun (Nguon) and coastal people (Ngondo).
As part of its projects, SNH gives priority to options aiming at the development of areas where oil operations are conducted, both in terms of business and employment opportunities and infrastructure.
With regard to the infrastructure aspect, some of the achievements include the construction or rehabilitation of roads and the construction of boreholes to give the local population access to drinking water, particularly in Mvia (Edea) and Bipaga (Kribi).
Depending on available funds, the SNH grants donations and subsidies of a social nature, to the benefit, in particular, of socially disadvantaged people.
As the main sponsor of cycling in Cameroon, SNH owns a team: SNH Vélo Club. Since its creation and affiliation to the Cameroon Cycling Federation in January 2004, this team has made its mark on the national and continental scene as a proud standard-bearer of the Company and Cameroon.
SNH also contributes to the development of other sports disciplines such as golf.
