The Tilenga Biodiversity Program is designed to address the impacts associated with the project, in line with the “Avoid, Reduce, Compensate” hierarchy, i.e. to avoid and reduce impacts as a matter of priority.

We implement specific and concrete actions on site to manage the impacts of all our operations on biodiversity. We strive to protect biodiversity wherever we operate and throughout the life cycle of our facilities.

TotalEnergies seeks to ultimately generate a net gain in biodiversity, in other words, improve biodiversity in the region with respect to its state at the start of the project, particularly, the Murchison Falls National Park.
-
Our GOAL is to leave the Murchison Falls Protected Area and the surrounding landscape in better condition than if the project had not taken place.
-
Our main objective in the Murchison Falls National Park is to reduce human pressures on the Murchison Falls Protected Area. Our operations affect only 0.03% of the park's surface area.
