Security

Our high-quality security programme, which includes personnel awareness of potential threats, helps ensure that we can continue to operate in a safe and secure manner. In 2007, we continued implementing physical and procedural security measures at many of our sites to effectively protect our personnel and operations. Security measures consider threats, the practicality of implementation and relationships with the communities in which we operate. We continue to improve our threat assessment and response capabilities, which are critical for reacting in a timely and appropriate manner given the dynamic threat environment in which we operate.

To further strengthen our security programme, we are continuously looking for improvement opportunities and integration of security into existing systems and processes, including OIMS. These efforts include increased workforce involvement and improved capabilities for reporting and analysis. In 2008, we will reinforce the Security Is Everybody’s Business message by introducing enhanced awareness programmes and training for site personnel on specific security programme elements. We have developed a programme to share successful security processes among security personnel at ExxonMobil facilities worldwide.
