Offshore Energies UK (OEUK) claims recoverable gas reserves on the UK Continental Shelf total 456 bcm, exceeding the North Sea Transition Authority's projection of 226 bcm from 2025 to 2050. OEUK argues that the decline in UK gas production is policy-driven and not geological, asserting that new investment and regulatory reforms are necessary to unlock these reserves. The organization highlights 111 projects with potential investments of £50 billion and emphasizes the importance of domestic gas production for energy security and lower emissions.
