The awards were presented at the opening ceremony of the 45th Safety, Health, and
Environment Congress organized by the CCS (Colombian Safety Council) at the end of
last month. All companies that received the Emerald Cross and White Cross in their
various categories—Initial, Medium, Intermediate, Advanced, and Excellence—were also
recognized for their outstanding results in risk management and the reduction of
accident rates.
“Through these awards, not only is the effort of the entrepreneurs recognized,” said
Renán Alfonso Rojas Gutiérrez, Executive President of the CCS, “but also that of
their workers, who comply with laws and regulations and exceed expectations for
workplace quality of life in Colombia.”
Discovery Energy Services will continue to work hard to strengthen its culture of
prevention within the organization, thereby creating safe and healthy workplaces. We
also want to highlight the efforts of the exceptional operating companies that

Resources, Chevron, Petrobras, Occidental de Colombia, Perenco, Emerald Energy,
Quetzal Energy, CEDCO, WOGSA-GEOPARK, P1 Energy Corp., NGEC, VETRA, among others. We
thank and share this important achievement with all our clients; without them, their
demands, and their support, none of this would have been possible. We work as a team
to achieve the safest and highest quality operations in the market,” said Jairo
Alfredo Peralta, CEO of Discovery Energy Services S.A.
