A commitment with the
environment and Peru

Our commitments are long-term; therefore, we continue working to return the coastline to its original state, compensate more than 10,000 families of Ventanilla, Aucallama, Chancay, Ancón and Santa Rosa, and carry out social and sustainable development projects in the affected areas.

More evidence for the
reactivation of fishing and
the reopening of beaches

We reconfirm that the sea and the beaches are free of hydrocarbons according to latest reports provided by several scientific institutions.

Based on a report
published by the NGO
OANNES in December 2022:

"No hydrocarbons were observed on the surface of the stations during the collection of phytoplankton and zooplankton samples".
More information here

In the report made by
Sustainable Fishing
Management, Professor Luis
Icochea Salas, indicates that:

"the seabed next to the coast was found free of oil according to several observations with an submarine drone between 4 and 18 meters under sea level, in different areas between Ventanilla and Chancay".

All this evidence would allow us to conclude that, in terms of hydrocarbon content, biodiversity and fauna would be appropriate for human consumption, that the sea would be clean and beaches would be suitable for attendance, without any risk to health or the environment.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of assistance will you provide to fishermen and businesses in the affected areas?

Repsol’s commitment is to support all the people who are suffering the consequences of the spill until the beaches and the sea are suitable for the development of their various productive activities. For this reason, company representatives are in constant dialogue with the local communities to inform them of the progress made and to attend to their needs.

Since January, Repsol has been providing basic necessities support through vouchers and payment cards of S/500. On March 4, we signed an agreement with the Peruvian government whereby those affected by the spill, who have been duly identified through the census carried out by INDECI, will receive a partial compensation advance to mitigate the impact on their labor income. These compensation advances of S/3,000 have already started to be paid out, and the company is working to ensure that they reach all those affected.

What do affected fishermen and businesses have to do to collect the compensation advance?

All affected parties included in the common census must voluntarily sign individual certificates to receive their compensation advance of S/3,000. The individual certificates can be signed through the sectoral associations to which they belong or by going to the spaces that will be set up for this purpose in coordination with the local governments. Once the information in the report has been verified, those affected will receive the deposit of S/3,000 soles as a compensation advance within 7 working days.

If an affected person is not included in the common census prepared by INDECI, he/she should report his/her case to the Civil Defense office of his/her municipality so that they can evaluate his/her case.

The common census can be consulted in the web https://www.gob.pe/padronafectados 

Will the aid to those affected be only short term?

Repsol’s commitment is long term and will continue with the dialogue with all affected groups and in accordance with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights. 

We will focus on the development of medium- and long-term productive projects and diversification workshops for the long-term productive sectors.
