Geopetrol S.A. : A French independent Company, on a human scale
Geopetrol S.A. was born in July 1993 when mature fields in France were purchased from producing Companies such as Esso, Total or Triton. With its organisation, competencies and philosophy, Geopetrol could extend and maximise the production of these mature fields in a responsible and profitable way. These fields are still producing today. As a recognised Operator, Geopetrol also obtained exploration permits in the Oil and Gas sector as well as in Renewable Energies (geothermal Energy), either alone or in partnership with reputable energy organisations such as « Electricité de Strasbourg »
With its diversified activities, Geopetrol benefits from multidisciplinary teams (Geoscience, HSE, Drilling, Production and Exploitation) allowing complete independence for the diagnostic and management of its Assets. The personnel are regularly trained, internally or outside the Company, in order to continuously update technical know-how and knowledge, especially in the sectors of Safety, Environment and Industrial Risks.
With such know-how, Geopetrol has been able to bring technical assistance to other companies and partners, especially in the domains of Geoscience, Drilling and Well Intervention.
