ONLY 27 new jobs will be created if the UK Government approves development of the controversial Jackdaw gas field in the North Sea, according to its owners, despite Tory claims that it would create almost 900.
An environmental impact assessment filed by Adura – a joint venture between Shell and Equinor – states that if the Jackdaw field is developed then there will be “300 jobs on Shearwater”, an offshore oil and gas platform in the North Sea.
