Hess CEO John Hess, in a discussion with energy leaders at the annual IHS Energy CERAWeek Conference, said that during this period of low oil prices Hess is guided by three principles: preserve our balance sheet, preserve our operating capability and preserve our long-term growth options.

At the Subsea Tieback Conference, hosted March 22–24 in San Antonio, Texas, Sr. Subsea Engineer Jason Harry will discuss how Hess recently applied subsea CT scanning technology to examine high corrosion potential locations along a flowline at an existing Hess asset.

In a keynote address at the DUG Rockies oil and gas conference in Denver on March 10, Bakken Vice President Gerbert Schoonman described the company’s strategy for keeping that momentum going even in a down market.

Hess was recently named one of the Top 50 Companies by Equal Opportunity Magazine.

Hess Corporation recently earned The Rocky Mountain Oil & Gas Awards 2016 Award for Excellence in Corporate Social Responsibility for its operations in the North Dakota Bakken.

Hess Corporation will hold a conference call on Wednesday, April 27, 2016, at 10 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time to discuss its first quarter 2016 earnings release.

Hess Corporation was honored at the second annual Citizen Schools Texas Luncheon on Tuesday for its grant to establish LEAP (Learn, Engage, Advance, Persevere), a three-year pilot program that supports at-risk middle school students in Houston.

On April 3, 175,000 barrels of Hess light crude left St. James Parish, La. for a refinery in Rotterdam, Netherlands. The shipment was the first reported sale of Bakken crude outside the United States since a 40-year ban on exporting U.S. crude was lifted by Congress and signed into law by the president last December.

Hess Corporation earned a place as the No. 1 oil and gas company on Corporate Responsibility magazine’s prestigious list of 100 Best Corporate Citizens for 2016. The list recognizes public companies across the United States with strong performance in such areas as environment, climate change, employee relations, human rights, governance, finance, and philanthropy and community support.

“With our balance sheet strength, oil-leveraged portfolio and attractive growth opportunities, we believe the company is well positioned to deliver strong cash flow growth and long term value as oil prices recover,” said Chief Executive Officer John Hess.

At the 2016 Task Force ZERO Safety Conference, hosted by Oil Gas Denmark this April, Hess Asset Director for Denmark Anders Nymann joined a panel of business leaders for an open dialogue on employee safety and the importance of industry alignment, particularly in the current low oil price environment.
