Union Jack Oil plc (UJO) has become an associate member of industry body United Kingdom Onshore Oil and Gas (UKOOG).
ENERGY SECTOR
The organisation represents the UK’s onshore oil and gas industry, including exploration and production.
UJO executive chairman David Bramhill would work with UKOOG to help promote the benefits of the UK onshore hydrocarbon industry.
“Without doubt, the UK onshore arena is beginning to show activity on several fronts, evidenced by a number of new developments progressing, all of which facilitate the growth of an extremely well regulated and important part of the UK energy sector.”
NET ZERO
“Following a very successful period for UJO, we look forward to working together to build on this excellent progress and further the development of the UK’s abundant onshore oil and gas resources,” said UKOOG director Charles McAllister.
“Developing the UK’s identified and proven onshore hydrocarbon resources is of evident geopolitical, environmental and economic benefit to the UK.
“The UK Government should take all necessary action to facilitate the growth of our industry, which has safely produced oil and gas for over 170 years in the UK.
“There is a very bright future for the UK onshore oil and gas industry in the transition to a net zero economy and as the trade body for the industry we look forward to spearheading that development with the Union Jack Oil team, alongside our wider membership.”
UKOOG
UKOOG aims to enhance the profile of the whole onshore industry (both conventional and unconventional) and promote better and more open dialogue with key stakeholders.
The organisation also delivers industry-wide initiatives and programmes, and ensures the highest possible standards in safety, environment management and operations.
