Our guy in Scotland, JL Daeschler, reminds Sunday Times readers that the UK can’t simply summon the return of the long neglected North Sea oil industry.
The editors deleted this sentence from JL’s letter: “Thank you Norway and USA for supplying us energy.” 😉
Compare Norway and UK management of their North Sea resources. The UK govt still hasn’t even made the clear and obvious decision to approve Jackdaw and Rosebank production.
The West of Shetland area has high oil and gas resource potential. Researchers at the University of Aberdeen are advocating a tailored management system to facilitate development.
