One of seven industry task forces reporting to the North Sea Transition Forum, the Technology Leadership Board (TLB) represents a cross-section of industry and works with government and other stakeholders to adopt, adapt and/or develop oil and gas technologies that support the energy transition and strengthen UK oil and gas industry competitiveness. Co-chaired by the North Sea Transition Authority (NSTA) and industry it interfaces with the other North Sea Transition Task Forces to agree synergies, avoid effort duplication and maximise benefit to the industry. Mission: To drive the development and deployment of new and existing technology to enable the twin UK Continental Shelf (UKCS) goals of Maximising Economic Recovery (MER UK) and achieving a net zero basin by 2050. Vision: To be the focal point for oil & gas technology on the UKCS, providing strategic direction and clear demand-led priorities aligned with MER UK and net zero commitments. The TLB’s strategy for the UKCS identifies the key opportunities and challenges for the future, creating clear priorities and connecting industry, regulators, academia and technology delivery organisations to develop and deploy existing and exciting new solutions.
