Subsea UK Welcomes North Sea Transition Deal. Chief executive of the underwater engineering industry body, Neil Gordon, said:

“With this deal we now have genuine collaboration and financial commitment from industry and government to deliver a just transition to net-zero that balances the country’s current and future energy needs, will protect and create jobs through the development of new world-leading projects and technologies in cleaner, greener energy which will be in demand globally.

“It’s encouraging to see the prominence of the supply chain in the deal. Only by having the UK’s energy supply chain at the heart of this, fully engaged in the opportunities and understanding their enablers, will we deliver the real net gains in terms of net-zero, jobs and GVA.

“Working together with industry and government, the supply chain will be able to identify the gaps and build the capabilities, including new research, technologies and skills, required to tender and win work nationally and internationally, propelling these projects forward, driving exports and delivering value for the UK.”
