Licence for controversial North Sea oil and gas field extended
The licence for the controversial Cambo oil and gas field in the UK's North Sea has been extended for a further two years.
The field, which is co-owned by Shell and Siccar Point Energy, attracted significant opposition from campaigners while the government regulator considered whether or not to grant a final permit to drill last year.
In December 2021 Shell backed away from the project before any decision was made, citing the potential for delays and a weak economic case for investment.
