In 2015, the production of liquid hydrocarbons in the Great Britain increased by 100 thousand barrels per day and reached the rate of 1 million barrels per day. This was reported by the US Department of Energy on March 28, 2016.
The timid growth began in the first half of 2015, when the volume of the oil and gas production on the shelf of the North Sea in the UK increased by 2.5% as compared with the first half of 2014.
The increase in the production started primarily due to the production in the area of Golden Eagle, the development of which began in November 2014. This enabled to predict that by the end of 2015, the production volume will increase in the first time in 15 years, and this was happened.
