Question to the Department for Energy Security & Net Zero:
To ask His Majesty's Government what assessment they have made of reports that artificial intelligence could save taxpayers and the oil and gas industry £10 billion in decommissioning costs.
The Government is interested in opportunities to reduce decommissioning costs in the North Sea/UK Continental Shelf. We work closely with the North Sea Transition Authority, Oil and Gas industry partners, and those working on new and emerging technologies in support of this aim.
