We welcome the court’s ruling which recognises that we acted correctly in upholding our Strategy.
Our advice to the Secretary of State on the proposed decommissioning programme (that there were no alternatives to abandoning or decommissioning the Gryphon FPSO) was made in compliance with the Strategy’s Central Obligation to secure the maximum economic recovery of hydrocarbons, and in doing so take appropriate steps to assist the Secretary of State in meeting the net zero target.
We will continue working with colleagues in industry to support energy production and security, accelerate the energy transition and reduce emissions.
The decision regarding the decommissioning of the Gryphon FPSO remains in the hands of OPRED.
