EXTRANET The extranet site is facilitated by Oil & Gas UK on behalf of its members to allow interested parties to network with each other on areas of common interest. The extranet also provides the facility to access information on meetings (dates, papers and general discussions) that extranet users are connected to and to download Oil & Gas UK guidelines free of charge. You will also find updates on policy issues, government consultations, information on regulatory developments and other activities.

Extranet users are provided with account details after nomination to the forums and workgroups have been received.

PUBLICATIONS Oil & Gas UK publishes industry reports, research and best practice guidelines to keep members ahead of industry trends, legislative and regulatory developments and other intelligence essential to successful business planning. Oil & Gas UK’s annual Activity Survey and Economic Report have become benchmarks for the industry and are widely used by members and policy makers in government, while Wireline, Oil & Gas UK’s quarterly newsletter, and our monthly electronic updates keep members up to speed with the Association’s activities and events. Members will be asked periodically to contribute to important industry surveys and reports. These publications build a comprehensive picture of the UK’s oil and gas industry and are much quoted by senior authorities and government. • ACTIVITY SURVEY The Activity Survey is an annual survey of operators’ long term plans, run in conjunction with the Department of Energy and Climate Change (DECC). The published output on the industry’s investment trends serves to inform the industry, government, MPs, the media, analysts and commentators. Importantly for operators, the data underpin DECC’s engagement with industry to inform government energy policies. Data on the amount of expenditure and likely timings are collected on Capex, Opex and decommissioning at project level, directly from operators, making the Activity Survey one of the most reliable and important sources of information in the UK oil and gas industry. Information is presented in aggregated form, so that the underlying data remains confidential.
