Interest Positive But Tangible Drilling Needed: United Kingdom

摘要

The UK's Oil and Gas Authority (OGA) has offered for award 123 licences over 229 blocks or part-blocks to 61 companies in the 30th Offshore Licensing Round. The round was first launched in mid-2017, with a focus on mature areas of the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS), some of which encompassed undeveloped discoveries and blocks directly adjacent to producing plays; some of the blocks offered have not been available for acquisition since the early 1960s (see ' Licensing Round Key To Return Investment', July 25 2017).
