ORLEN Upstream specialises in prospecting, exploring and producing from deposits of hydrocarbons (natural gas and oil). The company
operates on 27 exploration and appraisal licences in Poland (in Lubelskie, Mazowieckie, Małopolskie, Podkarpackie, Wielkopolskie and
Pomorskie provinces) and explores together with partner within 7 licences. We work also in Canada, where we are an important operator
in Alberta.
In order to carry out its field work, ORLEN Upstream subcontracts specialist companies with extensive expertise in selected exploration
and appraisal activities (e.g. seismic tests, drilling, stimulation works). Their representatives would be happy to give you in-depth information
on the planned course of their work.
In 2009 ORLEN Upstream received two ISO 9001:2008 Quality Management System certificates and
an ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management System for ‘Management of prospecting and produc-
tion’. Furthermore, in November 2011 ORLEN Upstream was awarded a CIPS certificate of excellence,
which evidences that company’s operations are professional and transparent. In 2012
ORLEN Upstream received a HSSE safety systems management certificate in compliance with
the PN-N 19001:2004 standard. Five years after receiving a CIPS Certificate, after another detailed
audit, ORLEN Upstream got recertification, which confirmed excellence of the purchase process.
