Over the years, Pan Ocean has made significant progress in the oil and gas industry. Through this transition our interest has matured from core business operations to include issues relating to CSR with the overriding objective to make positive impact in the lives of people that reside in communities where we operate.

We strive to maintain a healthy balance between our host communities and our operations by treating the communities as an extension of our business; giving the communities a sense of belonging as stakeholders in our business and operations.

We actively engage the community youths in gainful employment and also empower them through various skill acquisition and adult literacy programs. We have a large number of beneficiaries from our scholarship awards, computer literacy programs, fish farming, and tailoring programs. We have also constructed several kilometers of access roads, provided potable water schemes and constructed and equipped a clinic (Ovade Clinic) for our host communities. In education, classroom blocks have been constructed and science labs furnished and equipped with standard equipment. Pan Ocean also supports the local culture of the indigenes by constructing various town halls and actively participating in their various cultural festivals.

We regard our support for community groups and funding of multitude of non profit organizations that provide needed services and enrich society as a privilege. Helping to ensure that young Nigerians are equipped, prepared and encouraged to embrace self-improvement and self worth is a priority
