Overview: In its operations worldwide, Houston-based ConocoPhillips- a major, integrated energy company whose revenues topped $39 billion in 2000 - has found that doing things right and doing the right thing make good business sense. Its innovative system for mapping petroleum deposits, for example, has not only saved money and reduced injuries, but also helped protect endangered animals, plants and archaeological sites. By enhancing three-dimensional software, however, Conoco developed an innovative layout of seismic receivers, permitting seismic cable crews to avoid both environmentally sensitive zones and unsafe areas like cliffs.
