Eric Doyle, Regional Director – Europe at Aquaterra Energy, said: “This new independent regulatory body is excellent news for our industry, and received widespread support from the very first recommendations made by Sir Ian Wood in February.
“Since then the government has implemented a number of recommendations from the Wood Report, which many in the industry believe could add a potential £200 billion to the UK economy over the next two decades. Aquaterra Energy anticipates that this new oil and gas body will help to foster innovation and investment for our industry, which supports thousands of jobs across Scotland and the rest of the UK.”
