Controversial #JackdawGasField set to be approved in weeks, sources say
Simon Jack, 3 September 2026
"The #UK government is set to give the go-ahead for a controversial new #GasField off the coast of #Aberdeen, the BBC understands.
"Approval for the Jackdaw project could come in mid-September, just before #Parliament breaks for party conference season, according to government and industry sources.
"The gas field was approved by the former #ConservativeGovernment in 2022 but was delayed by a legal ruling from a #ScottishCourt, after #EnvironmentalGroups argued consent was given without fully considering the #ClimateImpact.
"Jackdaw's owner says it will account for 6% of UK gas output when at peak production but environmental groups say it will provide only 2% of UK use when imports are included.
"Campaigners launched legal challenges after Jackdaw was approved in 2022 and when the #RosebankOilField off #Shetland was given the green light in 2023.
"The Court of Session in Edinburgh ruled last year that #Rosebank and Jackdaw had been unlawfully approved because the government had failed to take into account the climate impact of burning extracted #OilAndGas from the sites.
"A judge ruled that more detailed climate assessments had to be published, and further estimates were put out for consultation in July.
"Both Jackdaw and Rosebank are operated by #Adura, a joint venture between energy giants #ShellOil and Norway's #Equinor. Aberdeen-based firm Ithaca also owns 20% of Rosebank.
"Adura has estimated that Jackdaw could produce 35.8m tonnes of carbon over its 11-year lifetime, the equivalent of 90% of Scotland's emissions for 2023. But it said a more likely estimate was about 23.6m tonnes - equivalent to 60% of the 2023 figure.
" #Environmentalists insist that more #drilling would be unconscionable, hampering efforts to cut planet-warming carbon emissions as deadly #heatwaves and #ExtremeWeather affect billions across the globe.
"They also say starting production would not protect energy security and that transitioning sooner to #GreenerTechnologies would be better for supporting jobs."

Political donations and lobbying are the poison in the well of democracy.
Money matters more than votes. The electorate can see this clearly.
#Burnham ‘s refusal to do anything about it will cost him dear at the ballot box because every decision he subsequently takes we know is influenced by who has paid the piper. He will play their tunes.
It’s already clear the #techbros and #bigoil are in his ear over #AI and #NorthSea drilling.

Tag 6: Esbjerg – Skjern
92km, 312hmDie Deutschen fliehen aus Dänemark. Ein langer Treck von Campingmobilen, Vans und Autos mit deutschen Kennzeichen kommt uns heute auf unserem Weg zur Küste entgegen. Da wir von politischen Verwicklungen nichts mitbekommen haben, kann es sich nur um Wetterflüchtige handeln, um Camper, die lieber nach Hause fahren als das Wochenende im feuchten Zelt oder Wohnwagen zu verbringen. Wir verstehen […]

Vanmiddag konden zes deelnemers aan de workshop plein air schilderen met olieverf genieten van het waanzinnige uitzicht en de steeds veranderende luchten boven het strand. We hadden een mooie middag. Elk kunstwerk ging in een kartonnen doos mee naar huis.

"Steve Wright, the general secretary of the #FireBrigades Union, said its members were on the frontline of the #climatecrisis dealing with #wildfires & #heatwaves.

Perched on the outskirts of Scarborough, the view stretches across rolling fields towards the #NorthSea, where the #EveningHorizon glows softly with the last light of day. Clouds gather over the water, casting dramatic contrasts against a fading #SunsetSky that hints at the wild beauty of the Yorkshire coast. The surrounding #CountrysideEscape is peaceful, with open farmland and hedgerows leading the eye to the distant shoreline. It’s a quiet vantage point popular with walkers exploring the coastal paths and enjoying the expansive #CoastalView.

Golden light washes over the peaceful countryside near Scarborough, where open fields slope gently towards the #NorthSea. A solitary tree stands on the edge of the farmland, offering a striking silhouette against the horizon, its branches touched by the #SunsetGlow. From this vantage, the blend of rolling meadows and distant sea creates classic #CoastalViews, embodying the quiet charm of the Yorkshire coast. The area around Scalby Lodge is ideal for walking and appreciating #CountrysideLandscape and #PeacefulScenery, with the gentle sound of the sea in the distance.

An #OilTanker & a container ship collided off the NE coast of #England, acc/to emergency responders, who scrambled to the scene on Monday morning. Initial images shared by the BBC showed fire & thick black smoke rising from the ships.
The British #CoastGuard said it was “coordinating the emergency response to reports of a collision between a tanker & cargo vessel off the coast of #EastYorkshire,” & that an alarm was first raised at 9:48AM local time.

#UKGovernment admits new #OilField approved unlawfully
James Cook
BBC Scotland editor
November 13, 2024"The UK government has admitted in court that the country's largest untapped oilfield, #Rosebank off #Shetland, was approved unlawfully.
"The move came during a case brought by #ClimateCampaigners against both Rosebank and the #JackdaGasField in the #NorthSea.
"At the Court of Session in Edinburgh Chris Pirie KC, for the government, accepted that assessments did not include 'the effects on climate of the combustion of oil and gas to be extracted from the fields.'
"Rosebank was given the green light on 27 September 2023 and Jackdaw on 1 June 2022, both by the previous #Conservative administration.
"As part of the consenting process, the government was required to consider #EnvironmentalImpact assessments about the fields.
"These took into account the impact on #ClimateChange of emissions caused by the process of extracting oil and gas but not of #GreenhouseGases which would be released when the #FossilFuels were eventually burned."
[...]
"The firms involved — #Shell, #Equinor, and #IthacaEnergy — say they should be allowed to carry on with drilling because permission was granted in good faith under the law as it was understood at the time."

Still want your fish & chips?
"An analysis by DeSmog shows that companies have been legally dumping toxic and #radioactive #oilfield waste into the #NorthSea for decades, with largely unknown consequences for a sensitive and beloved marine environment.
Drilling creates a particular type of toxic waste: #ProducedWater, a naturally salty fluid laden with carcinogens, heavy metals, and naturally occurring radioactive elements, that surges to the surface during drilling.."
