TotalEnergies' response

1. Has your company completed its withdrawal from Myanmar? Can you briefly describe the nature, sector, scale, and geographic area of any of your remaining business operations or investments in Myanmar?

Yes. On January 21, 2022, TotalEnergies announced its decision to withdraw from the Yadana field and from gas transportation company MGTC in Myanmar, both as shareholder and as operator. In accordance with the contractual 6-month notice period, this withdrawal became effective on 20 July 2022. This withdrawal was made in compliance with the European sanctions put in place in February 2022.

2. In the process of your company’s withdrawal:

a. What have been the key considerations informing this decision and did you consult with your workers and/or other affected stakeholders as part of your decision-making process?

In a context of continuing deterioration of the human rights situation in Myanmar, this decision resulted from the assessment that TotalEnergies was no longer able to make a sufficiently positive contribution in the country, and was not able to meet the expectations of stakeholders who were asking to stop the revenues going to the Burmese state through the state-owned company MOGE from the Yadana field production.

b. What are the immediate and longer-term steps that your company has taken or is prepared to take to mitigate any negative impacts of your exit on affected communities and your workers, including addressing any loss of income?

Since January 2022, TotalEnergies has continued to act as a responsible operator and has undertaken a human rights due diligence in accordance with the UNGPs to ensure its withdrawal in a responsible manner towards its stakeholders in Myanmar, including its employees as well as the long-standing supported local communities. As such, TotalEnergies worked closely with PTTEP, Thailand's national company, which was appointed as the new operator by the project partners, to guarantee the continuity and safety of production at the Yadana gas field while ensuring an orderly transfer of operations.

All our employees in Myanmar were offered employment with the new operator, under the same job and salary conditions, thus securing their professional future. In addition, a complementary support agreement, through a contribution to a dedicated fund, was also set up between TotalEnergies and PTTEP to continue the historic economic development program with local communities in the MGTC pipeline area.

3. If your company, subsidiary, or affiliate chooses to continue operating in Myanmar, what human rights due diligence has been undertaken and how are you planning to mitigate harm in Myanmar in your operations?

TotalEnergies has no activities left in Myanmar since its withdrawal on 20 July 2022.

4. What kind of due diligence measures does your company use to ensure that it does not have any business relationships with the Myanmar junta?

Not applicable given that TotalEnergies has no more activities in Myanmar.
