Deirdre Michie, Chief Executive of Oil & Gas UK, said: “We look forward to working with the new Government as it is formed. We are clear about our priorities – promoting the measures which ensure the continued success of our industry in the prevailing climate. To that end, we need a UK energy policy which realises the full benefits of the UK’s indigenous resources; to work closely with government to ensure that the UK Continental Shelf is globally competitive for investment, strategic management of Brexit to support, develop and promote the oil and gas industry and practical steps to protect, progress and promote operators, the supply chain and the industry workforce. We will look for an early meeting to make this case with the new Government ministers and MPs.”
