UKCS Flaring & Venting Report September 2020

The Authority is fully committed to supporting achievement of the UK’s net zero emissions target and is working with government and industry on the vital role that the oil and gas industry must play in the UK energy transition

A5 Overview Image
NSTA Overview 2024

The North Sea is changing. What was an oil and gas province is becoming an integrated energy basin. Oil and gas will still play a significant role, but offshore wind, carbon storage and hydrogen will all become more prominent as the UK aims to reach net zero by 2050.

Overview - Exploration and Production

We regulate the licensing of exploration and development of the UK’s offshore and onshore oil and gas resources, gas storage and unloading activities in accordance with the Strategy and the UK Government’s target of net zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.

Asset Stewardship Reviews

We will continue to undertake pro-active, structured and prioritised stewardship reviews with operators and licensees based on intelligence gathered, prioritising those with the greatest impact on economic recovery and support the drive to net zero carbon by 2050.
