“It’s a real opportunity for the UK-based industry to shine and ultimately showcase its decommissioning expertise to the world.
And there’s a real opportunity for North East England to play a big part in the future of decommissioning, so much so that I’ve recently been in North East England for discussions with local colleges, universities, and industry, to facilitate a round table discussion on a career path for the energy sector, a part of which is decommissioning.”
Decom North Sea
Decom North Sea is the single topic, multi region membership organisation which connects capability with opportunity across the oil and gas decommissioning sector.
Our region’s strategic North Sea coast location, sites, deep water ports, road and rail infrastructure and renowned engineering expertise, means North East England is the ideal location to site decommissioning activity, according to industry experts.
North East England is well placed to tap into the growth anticipated over the next 25 years, where an estimated £30bn will be spent decommissioning existing North Sea assets.
As a not for profit organisation, Decom North Sea is working to enhance knowledge transfer and facilitate collaborative activities to deliver “innovative models” that minimise decommissioning costs, ensuring best value for tax payers and maximising business potential for its member companies.
