Oil and gas onshore terminals have been critical for the UK energy security to date, and may have a very significant role in accelerating the UK energy transition.
Today, onshore oil and gas terminals are a key part of the existing energy infrastructure and are a well-established part of the petroleum industry. They play a vital role in connecting the energy supply chain, facilitating the import, export, storage and distribution of oil and natural gas and bringing together producers and transporters.
As we transition to a net zero economy, these terminals will remain vital for ensuring energy security and through connections with the carbon capture and storage industry will help reduce carbon emissions. Additionally, they are well positioned for both the production and transportation of hydrogen to demand centres and storage sites and provide a crucial hub for linking and utilising the offshore renewable power sector.
