Sinopec Engineering (Group) Co., Ltd.
2025 Environmental, Social and Governance(ESG) Report

Chairman's Statement

Dear Shareholders and Friends,

On behalf of the Board of Sinopec Engineering (Group) Co., Ltd., I would like to express our sincerest gratitude for your continued attention and support.

The year 2025 marks the conclusion of the 14th Five-Year Plan and a pivotal year for the Company in advancing sustainable development. The Company anchored itself to the development vision of Building a World-Leading Technology-Driven Engineering Company, adhered to the development positioning of Technological Innovation + Engineering Services, and continuously enhanced the value creation capabilities in Engineering Services, Technological Innovation, and Capital Operation. We have achieved remarkable development results. Over the five-year period, the Company secured a total of RMB 411.787 billion in new contracts, generated revenue of RMB 301.413 billion, achieved a profit of RMB 11.034 billion, created operating cash flow of RMB 18.265 billion, and distributed dividends of RMB 7.463 billion. While achieving sustainable and steady development, we have created substantial value for the industry, society, and our shareholders and employees.

We have consistently integrated ESG concepts into every aspect of our development strategy, production operations, and management practices, embracing "Low-Carbon, Green, Safe, and Responsible" as the foundation of our development. We are firmly committed to a sustainable development path and respond to the expectations of all stakeholders with concrete actions, earning wide recognition from the industry and society.

Focusing on Corporate Governance to Consolidate the Foundation for Sustainable Development

In 2025, we successfully completed the conversion of shares held by CNPC tradable shares, further optimising our shareholding structure and governance framework. We comprehensively revised the Company's Articles of Association, enabling the Audit Committee of the Board to fully assume the functions of the Supervisory Committee, thereby improving internal control mechanisms and strengthening risk prevention and control. Our industrial layout continued to expand, with the incorporation of Sinopec Environmental Technology Co., Ltd. to establish a professional environmental governance platform, contributing to the protection of clear waters, blue skies, and pure land. The acquisition of equity in East China Pipeline Design Research Institute was completed, further enhancing our comprehensive strength in the pipeline storage and transportation design sector. The Company maintains leading ESG performance, with its Wind ESG Rating consistently at the industry's highest A4 level, and winning the "China Listed Company ESG Annual Best Practice Award" for two consecutive years.

Strengthening Innovation-Driven Development to Forge an Engine of New Quality Productive Forces

Adhering to the philosophy of Open Cooperation and Integrated Innovation, we have deepened the integration of Industry, Academia, and Research with top-tier research institutes and universities, and collaborated with overseas clients and partners to promote advantageous technologies globally. In 2025, we successfully hosted the Sub-Forum on Process Industry Innovation and Process Systems Engineering Reconstruction at the 12th World Congress of Chemical Engineering, bringing together nearly 200 experts, scholars, and corporate representatives from the chemical field worldwide for exchange and discussion, thus building an industry platform for innovation and cooperation. We accelerated the implementation of the digital and intelligent transformation, issuing the Guidelines for the Comprehensive Promotion of the Company's New Industrialisation Framework for the Engineering Construction Industry. We developed a series of replicable and scalable achievements in areas such as intelligent design, machine-assisted manufacturing and digital delivery, promoting the transformation and upgrading of the engineering construction model towards "Standardised Lean Design + Factory-Based Intelligent Manufacturing + Modularised Installation". The application of AI has entered a practical phase. On the design front, efficiency is enhanced through knowledge graphs and generative design. In management, we are advancing intelligent management of the whole life cycle supply chain and the construction of smart sites. In construction, intelligent equipment such as trackless crawling welding robots and multi-axis pipeline welding robots is widely applied, leveraging digital and intelligent empowerment to improve development quality.

Deepening the Green Transition to Enhance the Brand of Premium Projects

We are dedicated to delivering premium projects and benchmark initiatives with ingenuity, supporting the high-quality development of the petrochemical industry globally. In 2025, the ExxonMobil Huizhou Ethylene Project commenced successful operation, creating a model of Global Rules and Chinese Efficiency. The Huajin Aramco Fine Chemicals and Raw Materials Project achieved mechanical completion for all 32 main production units, marking a critical breakthrough in project construction. The world's largest single-site coal-to-stefine project, which we designed, was fully commissioned. We successfully signed a FEED+ convertible EPC contract with Saudi ACWA Power for the Yanbu Green Hydrogen/Green Ammonia Project in Saudi Arabia, planning to construct the world's largest green hydrogen/green ammonia facility. Concurrently, we are systematically advancing our own green transition by scientifically setting environmental protection and energy consumption targets for the 15th Five-Year Plan period, refining carbon emission statistical mechanisms, comprehensively conducting climate risk analysis, and building a comprehensive climate risk prevention and control system. We are steadily promoting green energy projects, including sustainable aviation fuel, natural gas and LNG, green hydrogen-based energy, biomass utilisation, and photovoltaics, continuously improving our green industrial layout and protecting the ecological environment through concrete actions.

Maintaining Strong QHSE Performance and Aligning with Global Sustainability Consensus

We have integrated QHSE management throughout our entire operational process, aiming for Zero Defects and striving to ensure Zero Accidents, Zero Pollution, and Zero Harm. We strictly regulate subcontractor management, strengthen the professional development of grassroots safety teams, and establish a 24/7 overseas health support platform to build a robust safety defence line across all regions. We formulated three green and low-carbon policy documents, including the Guidelines for Green Ecological Design in Refining and Chemical Enterprises. Two of our entities were recognised as Sinopec Green Enterprises. We established eight benchmark green construction sites, with 104 green construction sites passing acceptance inspections. We are advancing the Zero-Waste Group initiative towards higher standards, earnestly implementing measures to reduce carbon emissions, decrease pollution, enhance efficiency, and increase green coverage, thereby practising the concept of global sustainable development.

Charishing a People-Oriented Approach and Fostering Symbiotic and Shared Development

We continuously improve our talent cultivation system, prioritising the development of young talent as an operating focus. We have deepened the implementation of the Seedling Programme, establishing a platform for young talent to engage in cross-regional, cross-business, and cross-departmental exchanges and on-the-job training, thereby stimulating their innovative potential. We actively fulfil our social responsibilities by leveraging our in-house safety training base to cultivate the Immersive Public Safety Education Programme, a branded public welfare initiative, fulfilling our social responsibility. Actively responding to the Rural Revitalisation Strategy, we consistently carry out consumption-based and educational assistance, contributing to the economic development and social progress of rural areas. In our overseas operations, we uphold the principle of inclusive growth, improve community communication mechanisms, respect local cultures and religious beliefs, and actively create employment opportunities in the localities where we operate, achieving coordinated progress and shared development between the enterprise, society, and local communities.

Looking ahead, the green and low-carbon transition of the global energy industry is accelerating, the goal of Carbon-Peaking and Carbon Neutrality is deeply implemented domestically, and the pace of energy transition continues to accelerate. The clean and efficient utilisation of traditional fossil fuels coexists with the large-scale development of new energy. Technologies such as green refining and chemicals, CCUS, hydrogen energy, and bioenergy have become development priorities. This presents both challenges and vast opportunities for us. Currently, the Company has formulated and obtained Board approval for the 15th Five-Year Development Plan Outline, which defines the seven major development strategies of Value Oriented, Innovation Drive, Cost Leadership, Digital & Smart Empowerment, Green & Clean, Global Development, and Integration Symbiosis.

In 2026, the Company will strictly implement the decisions and arrangements of the Board, focusing on advancing development initiatives such as strengthening strategic guidance and integrated coordination; continuously promoting innovation-driven development, lean management, digital and intelligent empowerment, and green and low-carbon practices; providing high-level support for the transformation and upgrading of the energy and chemical industry; leading the new industrialisation of the engineering construction sector to a high standard; advancing the internationalisation of engineering construction enterprise operations with high quality and efficiency; and achieving diversified value creation for the listed company. These efforts will enable us to take more solid strides toward building a world-leading technology-driven engineering company.

Dear friends, sustainable development is not only a call of our times but also a corporate mission. Let us join hands, move forward in the same direction, embark on a new journey towards high-quality and sustainable development, and work together to build a green and better future!

Atmospheric Pollutants

The Group's engineering construction activities primarily generate atmospheric pollutants including dust, nitrogen oxides (NOx), sulphur oxides (SOx), and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Dust mainly originates from shot blasting, sandblasting, rust removal, welding fumes, grinding and cutting operations. Nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides are mainly produced from the consumption of diesel and gasoline by construction equipment and company vehicles. VOCs are primarily generated from anti-corrosion painting operations.

To effectively control dust pollution, the Group adopts a source control approach. Enclosed workshops are set up in prefabrication yards for sandblasting and shot blasting operations, and these activities are strictly prohibited in open-air environments. Dust control facilities are installed to ensure effective dust management throughout the operational process. In addition, construction sites implement measures such as enclosure, covering and vehicle washing to manage dust-prone areas and equipment, thereby further reducing dust emissions.

For VOCs management, anti-corrosion operations such as paint preparation, spraying and drying are conducted in enclosed environments whenever feasible. Facilities are equipped with VOCs capture and treatment systems to collect VOCs emissions generated during operations. Thermal oxidation or other treatment technologies are used to ensure compliance with emission standards. At project sites, centralised prefabrication methods are adopted to effectively control dust and VOCs emissions, ensuring that atmospheric pollutants are properly treated before discharge and thereby minimising environmental impact. The Group also reduces VOCs emissions by prioritising the use of low-VOCs coatings for outdoor painting operations. During the Reporting Period, the Group's project implementation generated a total of 3,168.64 tonnes of VOCs emissions.

To reduce emissions of nitrogen oxides and sulphur oxides, the Group is gradually transitioning from conventional fuel vehicles and construction equipment to electric vehicles and new energy machinery, thereby reducing NOx and SOx emissions from fossil fuel consumption. During the Reporting Period, the Group's project implementation generated a total of 5.18 tonnes of SOx and 106.39 tonnes of NOx.

Domestic waste mainly arises from employees' daily activities, while hazardous waste is primarily generated from construction activities and daily office operations.

For general solid waste, the Group implements a classification-based management and disposal approach. Waste wood products, wastepaper, scrap steel and waste non-ferrous metals are recycled and reused internally where feasible. Waste machinery and transportation equipment are recycled or disposed of appropriately. Waste plastics, composite packaging materials, waste batteries, waste electrical and electronic products, construction waste and other materials are transferred to qualified third-party organisations for proper disposal. Domestic waste is handled by municipal sanitation authorities. All hazardous waste is transferred to qualified third-party organisations for compliant disposal in accordance with relevant national laws and regulations.

Waste management is included in the Group's routine environmental supervision priorities. The Group strictly reviews and rectifies issues such as improper storage of hazardous waste, mixing of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, improper storage of construction waste, incomplete or non-standardised record-keeping and inadequate waste classification signage. In addition, the Group actively explores green engineering technologies to promote waste reduction at source and recycling, supporting the development of a circular economy within the industry.

During the Reporting Period, the Group's operations generated 574.46 tonnes of hazardous waste, all of which was handled by qualified third-party organisations, and 135,038.08 tonnes of non-hazardous waste.

For details, please refer to the "Addressing Climate Change – Clean Technology Opportunities" section of this Report.

Noise

To prevent and minimise noise pollution, the Group carefully arranges construction site layouts and work schedules to reduce noise generation. Physical noise barriers are installed at site boundaries to contain sound effectively. We have also invested in low-noise construction equipment and implement effective measures to reduce noise during construction while conducting regular monitoring to ensure compliance with regulatory standards. The Group also actively promotes the use of new energy construction machinery, such as articulated or scissor-type elevating work platforms, to achieve "zero-emissions and low-noise" operating conditions.

Case

Traditional noise pollution prevention mostly relies on end-of-pipe measures, which are often faced with challenges such as high costs and limited effectiveness. In the Huizhou Ethylene project, SEI established a full-process, closed-loop noise control system featuring "simulation warning - design optimisation - dynamic verification", enabling systematic noise control at the source, significantly reducing environmental risks and subsequent remediation costs.

Biodiversity Conservation

The Group operates in strict compliance with the "Environmental Protection Law of the People's Republic of China" and the "Administrative Measures for Ecological and Environmental Penalties", as well as relevant laws and regulations in all our operational locations. The Group has formulated comprehensive management systems, such as the SEG Environmental Protection Management Regulations and SEG Environmental Management Guidelines for Project Prefabrication Sites (Trial). In addition, the Group also rigorously adheres to the environmental policies of Sinopec, such as the Sinopec Greening Management Regulations, Sinopec Ecological and Environmental Incident Management Measures, and Sinopec Accountability Measures for Ecological and Environmental Incidents. Through these structured approaches, we proactively advance standardised ecological protection practices across our operations.

Full Life Cycle Biodiversity Conservation Measures

Pre-Project Phase

Conduct Environmental Factor Identification and Impact Assessments

  • Maintain strict compliance with China's ecological red line policy, land-use efficiency protocols, and marine functional zoning requirements.
  • Conduct environmental factor identification and impact assessments across all operational areas, including construction zones and administrative facilities, ensuring robust and defensible environmental impact conclusions.

Prevent Environmental Impacts from Construction Activities

  • Carefully relocate and cultivate vegetation in surrounding areas that are susceptible to impact before construction to minimise ecological impacts. Pay attention to farmland reclamation during pipeline construction, adopt a combination of ecological belts and masonry in hydraulic protection, and carry out topsoil stripping for later reuse in land reclamation after project completion. These measures help reduce revegetation difficulties and improve revegetation efficiency, effectively facilitating land restoration and revegetation.

Training Project Implementation

Minimise Environmental Impacts During Construction

  • Prevent light spill and leakage of fuel, drilling mud and other materials during construction. Mitigate ecological risks from potential leaks and strengthen environmental protection and ecological restoration during pipeline construction.
  • For construction sites near the sea, assign dedicated personnel to monitor surrounding water quality and conduct real-time monitoring to ensure compliant marine discharge. Regarding oil contamination risks, install protective facilities such as drip trays beneath key equipment to effectively prevent leakage and spread, and carry out regular inspections by designated personnel. All wastewater is entrusted to qualified third-party organisations for disposal to avoid pollution.

Wildlife Protection

  • Strictly prohibit workers from destroying animal habitats, hunting, feeding or deliberately harassing wildlife during construction. Avoid disrupting ecologically sensitive periods for wildlife.
  • Promptly rescue trapped wildlife in a timely manner.

2025 Environmental, Social and Governance(ESG) Report

Post-Project Completion

Ecosystem Restoration

  • For environmental damage caused by construction, conduct ecological integrity restoration after the completion of construction, including vegetation restoration and soil and water conservation.
  • Develop vegetation restoration plans for areas where construction activities have damaged ground vegetation. For temporarily occupied farmland, grassland, forestland and other areas, strip and store topsoil for use in restoring vegetation in temporarily occupied areas, restore these areas to their pre-construction conditions after completion

The Group actively promotes the development and deployment of soil and groundwater remediation technologies, and has established a comprehensive site remediation technology system, including bioremediation and phytoremediation. The Group also actively advocates Nature-based Solutions (NBS) to support the protection of clean water, blue skies and healthy soils.

The adopted metric is “GHG emissions per RMB100 million revenue (tonnes CO_{2}e/RMB100 million)”. The purpose is to help mitigate climate impact through improved operational efficiency and project management optimisation.
• The scope of the target covers the Group's office locations and related engineering construction projects, encompassing both Scope 1 and Scope 2 GHG emissions, but excluding Scope 3. The target is voluntarily set by the Group and is not required by laws or regulations.
• The target has not undergone third-party verification and has not been developed using industry decarbonisation pathways or science based targets methodology.
• The Group has not yet planned to use carbon credits to offset emissions in order to achieve the above targets. Therefore, the targets do not involve the type, source or verification arrangements of carbon credits.

  • Total number of employees
  • Total employee turnover rate (%)
  • Incident (accident) rate per 200,000 working-hours

Within the scope of our work, we only performed procedures on selected 2025 key data at Sinopec Ningbo Engineering Co., Ltd. and Sinopec Fourth Construction Co., Ltd. and Sinopec Heavy Lifting and Transportation Co., Ltd.. We have not conducted work at other entities. We have not performed any procedures with respect to 2024 and earlier periods or any other information included in the 2025 ESG Report.

II. Responsibilities of the Board of Directors

The Company's Board of Directors is solely responsible for the preparation of the key data of the 2025 ESG Report in accordance with basis of preparation of the key data ("basis of preparation").

The Board of Directors is also responsible for designing, implementing and maintaining the internal controls that enable the preparation and presentation of 2025 ESG Report that is free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.

III. Responsibilities of the certified public accountants

Our responsibility is to carry out a limited assurance engagement and to express a conclusion based on the work performed. We conducted our work in accordance with the International Standard on Assurance Engagements 3000: Assurance Engagements other than Audits or Reviews of Historical Financial Information.

We have complied with our independence requirement and other relevant ethical requirements of the Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants issued by the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants (IESBA), and we have complied with the applicable requirements of the International Standard on Quality Management 1 with respect to maintaining a comprehensive quality control system.

Our independent limited assurance report has been prepared solely for the Company in accordance with the terms of our engagement. Our work has been undertaken so that we might report to the Board of Directors of the Company those matters we have been engaged to report in this independent limited assurance report and for no other purpose. We do not accept or assume responsibility to any party other than the Company for our work, for this independent limited assurance report, or for the conclusion we have reached.

IV. Summary of procedures performed

A limited assurance engagement on the ESG Report consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for the preparation of information presented in the ESG Report, and applying analytical and other procedures, as appropriate. Our procedures include:

  • Assessing the risk of material misstatement of selected 2025 key data relating to the ESG Report, whether due to fraud or error;
  • Conducting interviews with relevant staff at the Company who are responsible for providing the information in the ESG Report;
  • Performing analytical review procedures on the selected 2025 key data relating to the ESG Report;
  • Checking relevant documents of selected key data relating to the ESG Report on a sample basis;
  • Recalculating 2025 selected key data relating to the ESG Report;
  • Reading the information presented in the ESG Report to determine whether it is in line with our overall knowledge of, and experience with, the sustainability performance of the Company; and
  • Perform other procedures deemed necessary.

The extent of the evidence gathering procedures performed in a limited assurance engagement is less than that for a reasonable assurance engagement, and therefore, a lower level of assurance is provided. In addition, our work was not undertaken for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's systems and procedures.

V. Inherent limitation

We draw attention of the readers that currently there are no generally accepted practices to evaluate and measure non-financial information, therefore there are different measurement methods, which may impact the comparability among entities.

VI. Conclusion

Based on the Limited Assurance procedures performed and the evidences obtained, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the selected 2025 key data contained in the Company's ESG Report for the year ended 31 December 2025 is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the basis of preparation.
