BP reopens mammoth North Sea field after Donald Trump warned Britain was wasting ‘a treasure chest’ of oil and gas

BP will re -open an important North Sea area for at least ten years plans to pump new oil and gas – Ed Miliband will risk the wrath of Ed Miliband while trying to reduce the open sea industry.

The British energy company re -enables Murlach Field, 120 miles away from Aberdeen, after being declared non -economic and was left off by the previous operator shell in 2004.

BP said that the new technology means that the field may be re -applicable and that the previous government could be reused, and new equipment was established.

While the Energy Secretary is trying to end the production of new fossil fuel in the North Sea, production can begin later this year.

This project is not technically new because it received approval in 2023 – and the government said it would support existing licenses during this period.

However, Donald Trump said that after hitting the taxes in the North Sea oil in the North Sea oil in Scotland last month, the source was a ‘treasure chest’ for the country.

The US President has published the truth on the social platform: ‘The North Sea oil is a treasure chest for the United Kingdom. But the taxes are so high that it doesn’t make sense.

‘Essentially, drills and oil companies’ we do not want you’ they said. Encourage Drillers quickly. A great deying for England and much lower energy costs for people! ‘

Donald Trump hit the UK’s taxes in the North Sea oil in Scotland last month, and on July 28, he was depicted with Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer at the Menie Golf Field.

BP said the area has sufficient resources for 11 years of production and can produce 20,000 barrels of oil and 17 million cubic meters of gas a day. Telegram.

However, Greenpeace told Britain’s policy director Dr. Doug Parr Daily Mail: ‘The North Sea is at the gate of death. The reserves set up and the rest and unused are not enough to maintain life support.

‘Three billion barrels do not last for more than a few years in existing consumption rates, and even assumes that it is economic.

‘Regardless of the political rhetoric, oil and gas went almost, and soon the works of thousands of workers have gone.

‘Unless we want to stay dependent on foreign imports and monitor the collapse of an entire industry without a plan for workers, the only logical thing to do is to return the North Sea to something that will never be exhausted – the wind.’

A government spokesman said: ‘We are determined to present a manifesto commitment to avoid new licenses to discover new fields because they will not take a penny from the bills, they cannot make us safe and only accelerate the climate crisis that worsen.

‘In the North Sea, we provide a fair and regular transition to the open sea wind with the largest investment so far and the first two carbon capture and storage clusters.’

The government said it would support the ‘operating for the whole of their lives’ and ‘commitments not to cancel existing licenses’.

The ministers also stated that the most accessible oil and gas have already been extracted, and that production has been doing this naturally for the last 25 years.

The government believes that the North Sea no longer has reserves to support internal energy demand, and insists that they reorganize energy profit reform to support investment and provide industry certainty and stability.

In March, projections made by the government’s oil and gas regulator, the North Sea Transition Authority, proposed about 7 percent for oil and 12 percent decrease for natural gas.

The body also expects a 90 percent decrease in oil and net gas production by 2050 compared to last year.

Luckily Rachel Reeves, renewable and renewable energy resources on August 1 ‘or’ or ‘or’ oil and gas’ England and our energy safety as an incredibly important ‘describing a’ or ” he said.

Berwick Bank in the North Sea received a green light from the Scottish government this week.

The recommended wind farm on the coast of East Lothian can add more than 4.1 Gigawatt capacity, which is sufficient electricity to provide more than six million houses per year, according to developer SSE renewable resources.

However, Mr. Trump criticized the existing wind farms during his visit: ‘When we went to Aberdeen, you will see the most ugly windmills you have seen and the height of a 50 -storey building.’

He added with his hands and added: ‘You can get 1000 times more energy from a hole in this big place.’

Andrew Bowie, the Conservative Shadow Scottish Secretary, wrote to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and called for a review of policies affecting the oil and gas industry.
