Offshore Industry: North Sea
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Energy Security and Net Zero, what steps her Department is taking to increase domestic energy production through North Sea oil and gas development, including the Rosebank and Jackdaw projects.
Answered by Department for Energy Security and Net Zero
The North Sea remains a vital national asset, supporting jobs, growth and the UK's energy security. We have always been clear that oil and gas will continue to play an important role in our energy system for decades to come, alongside renewables, nuclear and other low-carbon technologies. It would be inappropriate to comment on Jackdaw or Rosebank which are subject to a live regulatory process.
