Tracy W. Krohn, Chairman and CEO, commented, “We continue to demonstrate our commitment to a high quality, comprehensive ESG effort by issuing our 2023 ESG report. This is our fourth sustainability report and we continue to make strides regarding shareholder rights, board structure and oversight, human rights, labor, health and safety and environmental initiatives. We are constantly improving our capabilities to better allow us to report on an increasing number of SASB standards and GRI standards for the oil and gas sector. W&T’s culture of success and sustainability is built on environmental stewardship, sound corporate governance, and contributing positively to our employees and the communities where we work and operate. In 2023, we added a new Board member, Dr. Nancy Chang, who is the chair of our Environmental, Safety and Governance committee that oversees our ESG efforts. We believe that Dr. Chang will help guide our continuous improvement and assist us in our commitment to the highest standards of ESG and corporate governance. We invite you to review this report to learn more about our sustainability program and our plans for improvement in the future.”
