Poland

Stakeholder Engagement

Building Relationships in Poland

A strategic stakeholder engagement process is under way in Poland, where Marathon has identified more than 2,000 stakeholders. We believe building relationships with government officials, communities and landowners is critical to our success in this asset.

As part of our stakeholder engagement, we hosted Polish government officials on a tour of our North Dakota Bakken Shale operations prior to starting exploration work in Poland. In addition, we are participating in a Polish industry association establishing energy development protocols.

Marathon’s local team has initiated individual, small group and town hall engagements to better understand stakeholder concerns and how they might be addressed. Potential issues that we may face in Poland include road infrastructure, water consumption, contractor availability and negative perceptions about the industry and shale operations.
