Adura estimates 35.8 million tonnes of CO2 emissions over 11 years—nearly 90% of Scotland’s annual emissions. A court ruled last year that both Jackdaw and Rosebank were unlawfully approved for ignoring emissions from burning fossil fuels. New climate assessments and public feedback are now required. Industry champions the project for energy security and jobs, with potential gas flowing by winter if approved this month. The final decision rests with new Energy Secretary Miatta Fahnbulleh, as the UK imports 60% of its gas. The government says it will weigh all evidence before deciding.
