- Jackdaw had been awaiting approval since 2024 after a court invalidated its earlier consent for failing to account for environmental impacts.
- Adura says Jackdaw could provide 6 percent of UK gas output at its peak; environmental groups put the figure at 2 percent.
- The approval is expected to safeguard hundreds of jobs and deliver an estimated £2.9 billion economic boost.
- North Sea oil and gas tax revenues are to fund an Energy Wealth Fund, initially backed with £2 billion for renewable and low-carbon projects.
