The Tilenga and EACOP projects have been designed to strictly limit the impact on local communities and, where possible, help to improve their quality of life. This is achieved by limiting relocation and providing support for the people concerned. The relocation plans are designed to avoid actual physical resettlement wherever possible, as well as negative impacts on living conditions. The teams in charge of the project at Total regularly check in on the people affected.
