FOR OUR CLIMATE, FOR PALESTINE! Stop Rosebank. ✊
📍DESNZ, SW1A 2AW. 🕐 12pm, Saturday 18th October.THERE'S ONLY WEEKS LEFT TO STOP THIS DEADLY OIL FIELD.
Equinor, Rosebank’s majority owner, has just re-submitted its application to develop the field. Our government will decide whether to approve it after a 30-day public consultation, kicking off any day now. We can’t let this go ahead. Because…

Trying to clarify finances of proposed oil extraction at #Rosebank - would UK Treasury actually pay out, or just not receive, estimated £258m? #FossilCapital #Equinor

Ein schottisches Gericht hat die Genehmigung für die #Ölfelder und #Gasfelder #Jackdaw und #Rosebank in der #Nordsee aufgehoben. Der Grund: Die britische Regierung habe die #Klimaauswirkungen nicht ausreichend berücksichtigt. #Umweltorganisationen wie #Greenpeace feiern das Urteil als wichtigen Erfolg. Die Projekte von #Shell und #Equinor dürfen zwar weiterentwickelt werden, eine Förderung ist jedoch erst nach neuen Genehmigungen möglich.

#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."

" #HSBC and #NatWest accused of financing #NorthSea #oil #extraction despite pledge
Two major #UK high street #banks have been accused of continuing to finance #FossilFuel expansion in the North Sea despite signing a pledge to align their activities with the net zero #climate goal.HSBC and NatWest have provided tens of millions in finance to #Ithaca Energy, a #British oil and #gas company that is playing a key role in plans to exploit the controversial #Rosebank oilfield north-west of the #Shetland Islands. Another high street bank, #Lloyds, also provided finance but has since sold down the debt.
A group of more than 80 organisations including #GlobalWitness, #Greenpeace and the #RainforestActionNetwork have written to the banks’ chief executives calling on them to cease funding Ithaca and to end their relationship with the company."

Somebody explain to me how The #Rosebank development is an example of the #offshore #industry implementing measures to counter #climatechange, in any meaningful way? It sounds like an oxymoron to me.

Rosebank oil field given go-ahead by regulator https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-scotland-business-66933346
It doesn’t matter how many times people with their noses in the trough say this will improve energy security; it doesn’t make it true.
#rosebank is bad for all of us, does nothing for energy security and moves UK further from #NetZeroEmissions

#ClimateActionWeekCITY OF EDINBURGH, SCOTLAND - September 16, 2023: Environmental protesters held a protest in Edinburgh today against fossil fuels such as oil and gas as well as the controversial projects of the Rosebank oil field and new gas power station in Peterhead, Aberdeenshire.
To be absolutely clear: This is not about awareness;
this is a demand for Action of governments !
This is more about #SystemChange than #ClimateChange
More about #JusticeOtherwise I'm of the opinion that #RoseBank should be stopped !

Rosebank: MPs and peers urge Grant Shapps to block new oil field - BBC News
Grant Shapps is being urged in the "strongest possible terms" to block drilling at #Rosebank - the #UK's largest undeveloped #OilField. Wet

#GretaThunberg travelled to the UK today to protest against the exploitation of the #Rosebank #oil field, off the coast of #Scotland.
Rosebank is almost 3 times the size of #Cambo - the #oilfield that people coming together have successfully stopped in 2021.The #UK #parliament has deferred debating the licensing of the #oilrig to after recess, Sept 4th.

"Friends of the Earth (#FoE) #Scotland have urged Scottish ministers to speak out against #Rosebank, while revealing the extent that the Norwegian state-owned firm has lobbied Scottish parliamentarians.
The decision on Rosebank is reserved to the #UK Government, and previously, #NicolaSturgeon’s criticism of the #Cambo oil field, also off Shetland, put pressure on the development, with #Shell later pulling out. "

A fight is brewing over #Rosebank, a 300 mln barrel North Sea oil field, double the size of the #Cambo oil field over which fierce climate protests forced #Shell to hit the "pause" button.
If the #UK government approves #drilling, they will come under fire; they are already giving advantage to #FossilFuel companies through #subsidies.
