Integrated Energy Basin

NSTA analysis shows the UKCS can make a major contribution to net zero. Oil and gas infrastructure and capabilities can be leveraged for CCS, offshore wind deployment, and hydrogen transport and storage.

 

  1. 60%
    UKCS contribution to Net Zero 2050

  2. CCS
    Offshore storage reservoirs and low carbon hydrogen production
    — helping decarbonise industry

  3. Offshore Wind
    Renewable energy, decarbonising oil and gas production and electrolytic hydrogen

  4. Infrastructure
    Existing pipelines and onshore facilities can be repurposed saving capital costs
