LUKOIL to obtain international conformity assessment certificates from Bureau Veritas

The ceremony of presenting ISO 14001 (Environmental Management System) and OHSAS 18001 (Occupational Health and Safety Management System) certificates to OAO LUKOIL management will be held at 6:00 p.m. in Moscow today. The certificates will be delivered by Mr. Frank Piedelievre, President of an international company, Bureau Veritas, which was involved in conformity assessment of the company over the period of 7 months.

Obtaining the certificates (valid for 3 years) is another step towards accomplishing LUKOIL's policy in the area of health, safety and environmental protection and an evidence of its conformity to international standards. Application of management systems in compliance with ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 will allow LUKOIL, in particular, to strengthen its positions in the market, increase its partners' and investors' confidence, improve company image, achieve conformity with investors' criteria and reduce direct and indirect costs. These certificates become an instrumental factor in the process of selecting business partners as it guarantees a qualitative accomplishment of obligations by counterparties. These management systems will be applied at all subsidiaries and affiliates of LUKOIL by 2005.

It is based on the experience of an international network of independent experts (BVQI) and on our varied technical skills applied in the area of energy management."
