據(jù)鉆機地帶6月16日消息稱，英國石油和天然氣協(xié)會(OGUK)周二透露，英國海上石油和天然氣行業(yè)承諾在未來十年將碳排放減半。

OGUK發(fā)布的一份新報告概述了如何通過改變運營方式、逐步減少燃除和排碳，以及實施旨在使用電力而非天然氣為海上設(shè)施提供電力的重大資本投資計劃來實現(xiàn)上述目標(biāo)。

OGUK表示，這些目標(biāo)是一項“轉(zhuǎn)型”行業(yè)交易的關(guān)鍵部分，該行業(yè)目前正與英國政府進行正式討論。OGUK指出，該協(xié)議以就業(yè)、供應(yīng)鏈和能源社區(qū)為核心，并將考慮英國石油和天然氣行業(yè)如何支持綠色復(fù)蘇。

英國政府能源部長Kwasi Kwarteng表示：“海上石油和天然氣行業(yè)承諾在未來十年內(nèi)將運營排放量減半，這對于在未來幾年在我們的能源轉(zhuǎn)型中發(fā)揮至關(guān)重要作用的行業(yè)來說，是一個可喜的一步。” 。

他補充說：“英國政府將繼續(xù)不懈地與所有合作伙伴合作，達(dá)成一項充滿活力的行業(yè)協(xié)議。隨著我們努力到2050年實現(xiàn)凈零排放，這將進一步支持該行業(yè)變得更加可持續(xù)。”

Offshore UK Oil to Halve Emissions in Next Decade

The UK’s offshore oil and gas industry committed to halving operational emissions in the next decade on Tuesday, industry body Oil & Gas UK (OGUK) revealed.

A new report published by OGUK outlines how targets will be achieved through changes to operations, progressive reductions in flaring and venting and major capital investment programs aimed at using electricity, rather than gas, to power offshore facilities.

The targets are a key part of a “transformational” sector deal that industry is now formally discussing with the UK government, according to OGUK. This deal has jobs, the supply chain and energy communities at its core and will consider how the UK’s oil and gas industry can support a green recovery, OGUK outlined.

The UK government minister for energy Kwasi Kwarteng said, “the offshore oil and gas sector’s commitment to halving operational emissions over the next decade is a welcome step for an industry that has a vital role to play in our energy transition in the years to come”.

“The UK government will continue to work tirelessly with all partners to deliver a dynamic sector deal. This will further support the industry in becoming more sustainable as we work towards achieving net zero emissions by 2050,” he added.
