  • Donald Trump called for the North Sea to be "opened up" and for the removal of windmills in a recent social media post.
  • His comments follow reports of APA Corp's plans to exit the North Sea by 2029, anticipating a 20% production drop in 2025.
  • The UK government is increasing the windfall tax on oil producers to fund renewable energy projects, which may deter investment.

  • Investments in offshore wind have also faced challenges due to rising costs and supply chain issues, prompting reviews of financial commitments.
