Energy Security and Net Zero Committee: Managing the future of UK oil and gas

Committee hears from witnesses

The Energy Security and Net Zero Committee will examine how the UK should manage its oil and gas sector as it transitions toward net-zero emissions. The session will hear oral evidence from witnesses on the economic, industrial, and climate implications of decisions about future oil and gas production, investment, and regulation.

This inquiry directly affects energy policy, energy security, jobs in fossil fuel industries, and the credibility of the UK's net-zero commitments. The outcomes will influence government strategy on whether to extend oil and gas licensing, support decommissioning, and manage the transition for workers and communities dependent on these sectors.
