Strikes, stores and a sticky situation

Wildcat strikes broke out this week on a number of platforms in the North Sea. Allister, back in the driving seat after weeks of non-stop social engagements, took us through the restive Bilfinger workers and some of the problems industrial action poses for all involved.  

Santos has potentially found a way out of its high carbon LNG project pickle in Australia with a plan to export CO2 to an end of life gas field in East Timor. With offtakers increasingly demanding progress on the emissions front, companies must listen – and find solutions. 

The mood in London, at the Africa Energies Summit, was also somewhat restive, with environmentalists gluing themselves to whatever they could find in order to make their feelings known. Despite this, in the conference room, appetite for exploration seemed to ride high with positive messages around seismic plans and drilling rigs.
