Corporate Responsibility

Watching out for our neighbors, protecting natural resources and working with communities that surround us are among Devon’s core values. Out of our desire to fulfill those commitments, we believe it is our duty to operate in ways that are safe and environmentally responsible.

Our efforts to achieve these objectives are broad in scope. They range from companywide emissions reduction programs to water recycling efforts in the vast Barnett Shale natural gas field in north Texas. Our award-winning safety program is driven by innovation and the underlying philosophy that if we can’t do it safely then we will not do it.
