Adura's updated Environmental Impact Assessment for the Jackdaw gas field states its emissions will have a minimal impact on global warming. This report was required by regulators after a previous submission was found inadequate and following a legal challenge from environmental groups.
Emissions from the controversial Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea will "not materially influence" global warming, according to a new report from its owner.
Adura's updated Environmental Impact Assessment, external (EIA) said the project would account for less than 0.02% of annual global greenhouse gases during its lifetime.
The new assessment was required by the industry regulator, after it found several areas had not been adequately addressed in a previous submission.
The report was ordered by a judge who ruled that ministerial consent for Jackdaw was unlawful, following a legal challenge from environmental groups.
Questions ouvertes
- Will the legal challenge impact the project's future?
- What are the specific concerns of the environmental groups?
