Creation of the Signboard for the production base with students from a School for Special Needs Education

Japan Petroleum Exploration Co., Ltd. (JAPEX) created the signboard for the Akebono A base, which is a production base of oil and natural gas with students from the Hokkaido Tomakomai School for Special Needs Education and Ms. Nachiko Murata, who is active mainly as an illustrator at JAPEX's Hokkaido District Office in Tomakomai City, on October 20.

As a company engaged in the exploration, development, and production of oil and natural gas, JAPEX places great importance on working with local communities. JAPEX is particularly committed to social contribution activities around our business sites. This signboard project aimed to give students from the school the opportunity to demonstrate their creativity and expressive skills and create a signboard that would symbolize the relationship between JAPEX and the local community. Ms. Murata designed the signboard, and students from the school were taken charge of coloring.

JAPEX will continue to promote understanding of its group's business through social contribution activities centered on the areas around its offices, aiming to develop with the local community.
