Andy Burnham’s government has approved the development of the Jackdaw gasfield in the North Sea but ministers indicated this would not necessarily mean a green light for the larger Rosebank oilfield later this year.
安迪•伯纳姆(Andy Burnham)领导的英国政府已批准开发北海杰克道(Jackdaw)天然气田,但部长级官员们表示,这并不一定意味着规模更大的罗斯班克(Rosebank)油田也会在今年晚些时候获批。
Energy secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh said that the Jackdaw gasfield, 150 miles east of Aberdeen, would help boost Britain’s energy supplies this winter and help to protect jobs and energy security over the longer term.
能源大臣米亚塔•法恩布勒(Miatta Fahnbulleh)表示,位于苏格兰阿伯丁以东150英里的杰克道气田将帮助提振英国今冬的能源供应,并在较长期帮助保护就业和能源安全。
She also announced the establishment of a new Energy Wealth Fund, which will invest tax revenues from the North Sea into renewables and low-carbon energy. It will start with £2bn in seed funding from the Treasury.
她还宣布设立一只新的能源财富基金(Energy Wealth Fund),该基金将把来自北海的税收收入投资于可再生能源和低碳能源。它将从英国财政部获得20亿英镑的启动资金。
