The UK’s oil and gas regulator, the North Sea Transition Authority, has announced stricter guidelines for producers in the North Sea to reduce emissions or risk losing out on regulatory approvals. The updated emissions plan emphasizes the need for cleaner production, indicating that production in the North Sea must also become cleaner for it to continue. Operators are warned that they shouldn't expect approvals if they have the means to curb emissions but choose not to do so. This move signifies a push for environmental responsibility in the oil and gas industry, highlighting the increasing focus on sustainable practices and emissions reduction.
