North Sea industry hails UK support deal

摘要

THE UK oil and gas industry has hailed as "transformative" a new package of support agreed with government that is intended to set the stage for billions of pounds of investment to help operators cut carbon emissions and kick-start hydrogen and carbon capture projects. Among the headline commitments in the long-awaited North Sea Transition Deal is a pledge by industry and government to invest up to £16 billion ($22 billion) by 2030 to reduce emissions of climate-harming carbon dioxide.
