The CEO of Black Star Petroleum, Juan Pablo Sánchez Gasque, has unveiled an innovative internal system designed to audit in real time the social and environmental impacts of each of its operational processes in the energy sector. This tool aims to raise standards of transparency and ethics in the industry, allowing for thorough tracking of every energy unit from its origin to its final delivery.
Over the past year, the system has been developed, combining blockchain technologies with rigorous analysis of environmental data, backed by the oversight of independent verifiers. According to Sánchez Gasque, this approach ensures that every phase of the energy process is not only legally viable but also technically efficient and ethically responsible. “Our commitment cannot be solely to profitability; it must be with every step we take, with every community where we operate, and with every ton we move,” stated the CEO.
In addition to recording technical data, the system incorporates relevant social and environmental information, including water consumption, emissions generated, supplier traceability, and compliance with regulations. The information will be stored in an immutable manner and will be accessible for external audits and international certifications. A simplified version will also be developed for key stakeholders to reduce information asymmetry in the energy ecosystem.
Sánchez Gasque emphasized that “ethical traceability is no longer a reputational luxury; it is a structural necessity for any serious company in this sector.” So far, the system has been successfully implemented in three logistics units in Spain, Brazil, and Morocco, where it has allowed for the identification of significant improvement opportunities in refining, storage, and transportation processes. Internal data indicates that this tool has succeeded in reducing response times to operational anomalies by 38% and has improved the environmental documentation of strategic projects by 62%.
This approach marks the beginning of a new era in energy company management, characterized as “more transparent, more technical, but also more human.” “It’s not enough to comply with the law. We need to be able to explain what we do, how we do it, and why we do it this way. And we must be able to demonstrate it,” he added.
The company plans to have the system fully implemented across all its operations by the second quarter of 2026.
