KOGAS
CEO’s Message
"Better Energy, Better World"
The corporate philosophy of KOGAS is to create a better world with better energy. Upholding our philosophy, we will keep striving for our customers’ continuous trust and support.
Since its establishment in 1983, KOGAS has supplied natural gas in a safe and reliable manner to Korea, contributing to the nation’s economic development and benefiting the everyday life of the Korean people. At the same time, as a government-backed company, KOGAS has always put itself at the forefront of change and development. The unwavering support and interest from our customers and the Korean people have been the biggest driving force for KOGAS to grow and advance.
Recently, the world’s internal and external environments are rapidly changing due to the global economic recession and soaring LNG prices. Despite such challenges, KOGAS will continue to faithfully conduct its duties to ensure safe and stable natural gas supply. KOGAS is determined to become a future growth company in which people see hope by pursuing the following four tasks.
By responding more nimbly to address financial issues, KOGAS will ensure stable natural gas supply. Also, we will continue to improve our financial structure in close cooperation with the government while taking bold self-rescue measures such as cost reductions.
Instead of remaining complacent in our comfort zone, we will adamantly strive for growth and development. KOGAS will actively engage with our stakeholders, including the government and the National Assembly, the public, end-consumers, overseas suppliers, and shareholders to win their support, in order to lay the foundation for successfully conducting KOGAS’s business projects.
In addition, we will carefully review our hydrogen business to revamp it in a way that substantially contributes to KOGAS’s future growth. Our new energy projects using natural gas infrastructure such as LNG bunkering business will be managed thoroughly as well to bear fruit and produce profits.
Taking this opportunity, we would like to ask for our fellow Korean citizens' continued interest and support as KOGAS and its fully committed members take a step into a better future. We assure you that we will do our best to increase KOGAS’s corporate value, contribute to Korea’s economic growth and provide greater energy benefits to the Korean people as a public company.
Thank you.
Choi Yeon-Hye President and CEO, Korea Gas Corporation
