The UK can unlock significant future growth opportunities in offshore wind – but only if industry and government work collaboratively to support a positive investment climate.
Offshore Energies UK (OEUK) has partnered with Robert Gordon University for a roadmap that has the potential to unlock £90 billion for the UK supply chain.
Few other sectors could have matched the British energy industry’s reaction to the challenges it has faced over the past 18 months, the chief executive of Oil and Gas UK (OGUK) said yesterday.
Deirdre Michie said the oil and gas industry had shown its resilience by reducing costs and increasing production for the first time in 15 years last year.
Companies have also shown their willingness to work together on projects such as inventory management and the standardisation of subsea projects, she said.
