The team has expertise in managing large, complex assets in the UKCS whilst adopting innovative technologies and strategies to unlock the maximum commercial hydrocarbon potential. The Company will also have a strong North Sea exploration focus that targets the best returns taking account of both technical and fiscal factors.
