This research looks at the connection between business success in the oil and gas industry and sustainability strategy. Businesses are being forced to incorporate sustainability strategies into their core operations due to growing regulatory demands, stakeholder activism, climate change concerns, and global energy transition regulations. The research design used in the study was cross-sectional. One thousand two hundred and twenty-three (1223) senior managers from ten significant oil and gas companies in South-South Nigeria made up the population. A sample of 301 was calculated using the Taro Yamen formula. For this study, the statistical method known as Simple Regression Analysis was used in combination with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 27.0. The results showed that business performance in the oil and gas industry is favorably impacted by sustainability strategy. The research came to the conclusion that business reputation is strategically impacted by social and environmental sustainability. It is expected that investments, community development initiatives, and governance openness would improve stakeholder trust, brand equity, and operational effectiveness. Among other things, the report suggests that oil and gas companies keep expanding their ability to engage with stakeholders via interpersonal small groups and public social sustainability strategies.
