Accountability and Governance

Managing risk and doing the right thing are essential parts of our company's culture. Our company leaders believe in promoting a culture of best ethical business practices. We know that success relies on both corporate and personal responsibility to protect our employees and communities and preserve the environment.

Leadership

Antero’s Board of Directors has ultimate oversight of the company’s operational performance and ethical conduct. This includes managing the company’s risk mitigation and ESG efforts. The Board ESG Committee provides guidance relating to the identification and evaluation or risks and opportunities related to the environment and climate change, health and safety, and social and political trends.

"The ESG Committee was established to provide guidance to the company about ESG strategy. We do this by meeting with company leadership and engaging ESG subject matter experts to discuss challenges, trends and opportunities. These conversations help shape Antero Midstream’s ESG strategy and promote an additional layer of ESG accountability within the organization."

-Brooks Klimley, ESG Committee Chair
