Natural Gas and Oil: Exploration
Asked by: Lord Moynihan (Conservative - Excepted Hereditary) Monday 27th April 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of their policy to issue no new oil and gas exploration licences on UK energy import dependency. Answered by Lord Whitehead - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) North Sea oil and gas production is in natural decline, with a 75 per cent reduction in production occurring between 1999 and 2024.
While we will manage existing oil and gas fields for their lifespan, the government will not issue licences to explore new fields which would only make a marginal difference to overall production.
The UK became a net importer of energy over two decades ago in 2004.
Given the maturity of the basin, further licensing would not reverse its natural decline, nor change the UK’s status as a net importer of oil and gas. |

Liquefied Natural Gas: Carbon Emissions
Asked by: Lord Moynihan (Conservative - Excepted Hereditary) Monday 27th April 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the emissions implications of replacing domestic liquefied natural gas (LNG) production with imported LNG. Answered by Lord Whitehead - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) While the UK produces natural gas, it does not produce LNG domestically; LNG is imported and regasified for use in the gas system.
The North Sea Transition Authority (NSTA) published analysis in September 2025 comparing the emissions intensity of domestically produced gas with imported liquefied natural gas. This analysis is available on the NSTA’s website. In 2024, domestic gas production made up 43% of gross supply, LNG imports accounted for 14%, with the remainder coming from pipeline imports – principally from Norway. |

Liquefied Natural Gas: Carbon Emissions
Asked by: Lord Moynihan (Conservative - Excepted Hereditary) Monday 27th April 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of whether UK continental shelf domestic gas production has a lower lifecycle emissions intensity than that of imported liquefied natural gas from the United States of America and Qatar. Answered by Lord Whitehead - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) The North Sea Transition Authority (NSTA) published analysis in September 2025 comparing the emissions intensity of domestically produced gas with imported liquefied natural gas (LNG). This analysis is available on the NSTA’s website. In 2024, domestic gas production made up 43% of gross supply, LNG imports accounted for 14%, with the remainder coming from pipeline imports – principally from Norway. |

Natural Gas and Oil: Exploration
Asked by: Lord Moynihan (Conservative - Excepted Hereditary) Monday 27th April 2026 Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero: To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of the impact of a ban on issuing new oil and gas exploration licences on (1) supply chain capacity, and (2) retention of skilled offshore workers in the oil and gas sector. Answered by Lord Whitehead - Minister of State (Department for Energy Security and Net Zero) The natural decline of North Sea oil and gas has seen more than 70,000 jobs lost in the last decade. New exploration licences will not reverse this trend. We published the North Sea Future Plan (November 2026), setting out how we will support supply chains, protect jobs and secure the next generation of good jobs. |
