Offshore Industry: North Sea
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, whether he has consulted the International Panel on Climate Change on the future of the Rosebank and Jackdaw oil fields.
Answered by Michael Shanks
Should the developers of the Jackdaw and Rosebank fields choose to re-submit applications for consent they will need to undertake a comprehensive assessment of scope 3 emissions, drawing on appropriate sources of information as referenced in the guidance that we have published. As these projects may be subject to future regulatory decisions, it would be inappropriate to comment further.
