The green light to develop one of the largest untapped oil and gas fields in british waters. Rosebank lies in the north sea, about 80 miles west of shetland. Experts say it contains about 350 Million Barrels of oil. Production could start in 2026, with extraction continuing until at least 2030. Its thought that about 69,000 barrels of oil could be produced every day. That would equate to about 8 of the uks total output.
