据世界石油6月10日消息称，本周，英国政府与壳牌公司在伦敦举行会谈，讨论北海石油和天然气。
壳牌首席执行官范伯登和英国商务大臣Kwasi Kwarteng的评论强调了能源政策的深刻转变。
监管机构上周批准壳牌在北海开发寒鸦天然气田，此前曾以环境为由拒绝了该项目。这家能源巨头还在参与的备受争议的坎博石油开发项目中也有股份，该项目去年因气候抗议而被搁置。
6月7日，范伯登在向员工发表的讲话中说：“负责任的生产，本地天然气在英国的能源安全和向净零排放的过渡中发挥着至关重要的作用。”讲话全文发布在壳牌的网站上。
出席此次活动的Kwarteng在linkedIn的一篇帖子中表示，鉴于大宗商品价格飙升，英国必须对其能源需求“现实”一些。
Kwarteng说：“我们希望确保不会浪费我们在北海拥有的资源，因为我们的石油和天然气储备将确保我们的国家安全。”

UK begins pivot from renewables with refocus on domestic oil, gas investments
The U.K. government got together with Shell Plc in London this week to talk up North Sea oil and gas.
Comments by Shell CEO Ben van Beurden and UK Business Secretary Kwasi Kwarteng underscore the deep shift in energy policy.
Regulators last week gave Shell approval to develop the Jackdaw natural gas field in the North Sea, having previously rejected the project on environmental grounds. The energy major also has a stake in the controversial Cambo oil development, which was put on ice last year amid climate protests.
“Responsibly produced, local gas plays an essential role in the U.K.’s energy security and the transition to net-zero emissions,” Van Beurden said in a speech to staff on June 7, the text of which was posted on Shell’s website.
Kwarteng, present at the event, said in a linkedIn post that the UK has to be “realistic” about its energy needs in light of soaring commodity prices.
“We want to ensure we don’t squander the resources we are blessed with in the North Sea, because our oil and gas reserves will ensure our national security,” Kwarteng said.
