A new group has been formed to pioneer development of offshore technology in the U.K. North Sea in a bid to drive forward EOR.
Oil and gas industry professionals will collaborate in a new Technology Leadership Board (TLB). The government and industry leaders will work together to “coordinate and lead activities on a U.K.-wide basis to identify priority technology areas and make sure the resources are in place to deliver them,” industry group Oil and Gas UK said in a news release.
Paul Warwick, executive vice president of Talisman Energy Inc., has been appointed to chair the TLB. Other appointees are due to join from government departments. Warwick says the TLB will establish technology delivery groups focused on priority areas across the U.K. to strengthen links between industry and energy research organizations.
