As part of the Oil and Gas Innovation Programme, NERC invites applicants to participate in a one-day interactive brokerage event on decommissioning and its environmental management, with the ultimate aim of funding research translation projects which address industry challenges related to:
- Development of environmental baselines and innovative monitoring techniques and approaches.
- Data management, sharing, access and collaboration.
- Impact of man-made structures on the natural environment and options for decommissioning.
Following the event, £850k will be available for research translation projects. Participants will have the opportunity to develop and submit a research translation project proposal through Je-S. Proposals will only be accepted from those who have participated in the brokerage event.
