據油氣新聞2月23日消息稱，英國能源部長Greg Hands周二表示，英國認為北海油氣行業前景“良好、穩定”，并將頒發新的許可證，以擴大未來的產量。

Hands在國際能源周在線會議上說：“我們需要對北海的持續投資。”

他說，英國政府將舉行新一輪的許可證發放，以勘探更多的石油和天然氣資源，并確保它們與英國削減溫室氣體排放的氣候義務“兼容”。

“所有這些都為油氣行業指明了一個美好、堅實的未來。”Hands說。

Britain to license new oil and gas North Sea activity

Britain sees a “good, solid” future for the North Sea’s oil and gas industry and will issue new licenses to expand output in the future, Energy Minister Greg Hands said on Tuesday.

We need continued investment into the North Sea,” Hands told the International Energy Week online conference.

The British government will hold new licensing rounds to explore for more oil and gas resources and ensure that they are “compatible” with the country’s climate obligations to cut greenhouse gas emissions, he said.

“All these things point towards a good, solid future for oil and gas,” Hands said.
