The proposed Cambo project has been met with fierce opposition because, if approved, it would mean the UK government signing off on 170m barrels of new oil just weeks before hosting global climate talks, COP26, in Glasgow. Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has called on Boris Johnson to “reassess” the oil project in light of UK climate commitments.Greenpeace has learned that key drilling kit is set to be installed at the Cambo oil field this week, and it fears that the UK government may have jumped the gun on its own official process by allowing oil companies to install the kit at the site, west of Shetland.
