Sustainability

Introduction

The concept of sustainable development allows us, as a society, to conduct a debate and take decisions in recognition of what future generations may require and expect. This debate, often based on value judgements, allows us to weigh social, environmental and economic benefits of any given course of action against the detriments.

Good stewardship of our country’s natural resources is an essential national goal. The whole oil and gas industry and government have a responsibility to make sure that the nation achieves the maximum benefit from its oil and gas reserves.

Oil & Gas UK is the leading representative organisation for the UK offshore oil and gas industry. Its members are companies licensed by the Government to explore for and produce oil and gas in UK waters and those who form any part of the industry's supply chain.

The Oil & Gas UK sustainable development strategy and report is designed to inform society of the oil and gas industry’s goals, achievements and further challenges in this area and to invite dialogue. It can be accessed below through the interactive Sustainable Development Indicator Wheel which captures the key indicators we have used to define the industry’s contributions and impacts.
