OR promotes the concept of maximizing the sustainable use of natural resources, with water being one of the crucial resources. Therefore, OR emphasizes managing the water used in the company’s operations by integrating into QSHE policy and annual target. OR has established water management as the following:

• The implementation of effective water management ensures minimal impacts on business operations by utilizing international standards such as AQUEDUCT and the Water Risk Filter. These tools are used for water use assessment to identify opportunities for water efficiency improvements. The water sources utilized by OR include tap water and groundwater. The assessment results show that 70.3% of the company’s facilities are located in Water Stress Areas. OR manages water usage in its production processes efficiently, recycling water, focusing on water conservation, and implementing technology for water management. The Company also takes responsibility for water use throughout its supply chain, such as treating wastewater for reuse and campaigning to raise awareness among office areas to use water responsibly. This aims to minimize the impact of water resource use in operations and mitigate the impact to surrounding societies, communities and living being.
• The water use assessment was conducted to identify opportunities for water efficiency improvements which take environmental aspect into account via ISO 14001:2015 which is audited annually. Data on water consumption from all operation areas have been consistently recorded on the Web-Application: PTT Group SSHE Performance Database. This record is regularly summarized and analyzed to compare water consumption with the established targets to reduce water use by using QSHE controlling target and these targets apply to all establishments.
• In addition, OR also monitors both internal and external water factors, such as regulations, water quantity, water quality, and water policies. This includes collaboration with the PTT Group, external organizations, and relevant government agencies to manage and promote sustainable water management.

              In addition to the water management approaches aforementioned, OR has also implemented action to reduce water consumption at office buildings and relevant establishments, such as LPG cylinder refurbishing plants in all areas, factories within OASYS lifestyle business centers area, and certain petrol stations, which have installed water treatment systems for water recycling. Furthermore, in 2024, OR established organizational targets to reduce water use at each establishment. OR integrated and linked the concept of efficient water consumption across all establishments through the PI Idea project (Productivity Improvement), fostering a culture of continuous improvement and development among employees and departments to meet the organization’s sustainable development goals. The evaluation criteria include projects that yield results in Triple bottom-line business operations, emphasizing the importance of the 3Ps (Planet, People, Performance). Water reduction is considered under the Planet pillar, which OR prioritizes. Additionally, awareness training on water efficiency management is conducted for employees through the SSHE 1 Training course.
