This programme of expenditure supports OPRED's environmental and decommissioning regulatory responsibilities and includes managing the UK's offshore energy legacy safely, securely and cost effectively in a most environmentally beneficial context (oil & gas decommissioning).
Introduction:
OPRED requires the provision of specialised environmental and decommissioning services to support its regulatory functions relating to offshore oil and gas exploration, production and decommissioning activities, and offshore carbon capture and storage activities on the UK Continental Shelf (UKCS).

For example, resources are required to cover functions such as providing expert engineering support during oil spills, quantification of decommissioning costs, provision of expert ornithological advice and undertaking appropriate assessments.
The programme aims to deliver:
• An improved understanding of the environmental impacts of offshore oil and gas activities, offshore carbon capture and storage activities and the mitigation measures to be adopted.
• Dissemination of specialist knowledge and best practice in offshore oil and gas operations and offshore carbon capture and storage operations in the UKCS and other areas of activity.
• Potential decommissioning cost reductions.
