The present work was elaborated with intention to divulge and to approach the question of environment management contribution for drilling companies. Through searching and interviews, the thematic of the problem can be understood and extracts of the real cases to serve as examples to find the solution to the problems arisen by the use of our working methodology. Drilling companies that look for a competitive advantage or to even survive and to adjust to a turbulent and unforeseeable business environment realize that they need to increasingly strike new attitudes related to environmental problems. These new attitudes include a continuous changing process on the manner to manage their business in the organizations.

A theoretical research has been developed and analyzed the environmental management of a drilling company. Between its results are testament to the importance of deploying and maintaining an environmental management system and finding this as a technological innovation.
