Shell’s North Sea Jackdaw gas field has received final regulatory approval.
The news was announced by Business and Energy Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng.
He said: “Jackdaw gas field – originally licensed in 1970 – has today received final regulatory approval.
“We’re turbocharging renewables and nuclear, but we are also realistic about our energy needs now.
“Let’s source more of the gas we need from British waters to protect energy security.”
The gas field had initially been rejected on environmental grounds but in March Shell released updated development plans to the Offshore Petroleum Regulator for Environment and Decommissioning.
Under the plans, Shell aims to start production from the field – which will supply 6.5% of Britain’s gas output – by the second half of 2025.
The gas field has reserves of between 120 million and 250 million barrels of oil equivalent.
