<p>The UK’s offshore oil and gas industry supports almost 300,000 jobs, of which four
in ten are in Scotland. We believe that the North Sea oil and gas industry has a key
role to play as we move to a Net Zero economy. We will support this transition with
a transformational oil and gas Sector Deal. BEIS officials have already held preliminary
discussions with industry to discuss how such a Sector Deal could enable the sector
to play a leading role in the energy transition. Discussions will develop further
over the next few months, as the process develops.</p>
