Energy — UK PM-DESIGNATE BURNHAM TO FAST-TRACK NORTH SEA OIL & GAS DRILLING
BullishEnergy
Incoming UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham is set to accelerate drilling at existing North Sea oil and gas fields, reversing his predecessor's policy. While the government will uphold a 2024 manifesto pledge not to issue new exploration licenses, it will expedite work on currently undeveloped sites. The move signals a significant shift in energy policy amid security concerns linked to the war in Iran.
