Rosebank Oil Field Under Scrutiny | Aberdeen News
Description
The UK government faces a pivotal decision on the Rosebank oil field — the nation’s largest untapped reserve — as energy giant Adura pushes for approval, touting £8.7 billion in investment, thousands of jobs, and a boost to domestic energy security.

With the public consultation now open, campaigners are framing this as a make-or-break moment for climate commitments — urging ministers to choose people and the planet over profit.
