Meeting Colombia’s Mayors
On May 21, 2014, Fernando Benalcazar, EO’s VP of Global Implementation and VP Latin America, gave a presentation to mayors of the Colombian municipalities most affected by oil and gas exploration and production. He was invited to give this presentation by Dr. Gilberto Toro, Executive Director of the Colombian Federation of Municipalities. In the presentation, he outlined the benefits that application of the EO100 Standard could bring to these areas, including more stability in oil and gas projects and fewer interruptions. The presentation was received positively, and mayors were given all the pertinent information to contact Santiago Pastrana, EO’s representative in Colombia, regarding the possibility of applying the EO100 Standard to projects near their municipalities.
