周二，气候保护活动人士在伦敦英国能源安全与净零排放部外举行示威，呼吁政府叫停备受争议的北海罗斯班克油气田开发项目。
Climate campaigners staged a demonstration outside the UK Department for Energy Security and Net Zero (DESNZ) in London on Tuesday, calling on the government to halt development of the controversial Rosebank oil and gas field in the North Sea.
此次抗议活动由“伦敦无化石”等环保组织发起，参与者要求英国政府撤销新的油气开采许可，并加快向可再生能源转型的步伐。
Organized by activists from groups including Fossil Free London, the protest called on the UK government to reject new oil and gas licenses and accelerate the transition to renewable energy.
2026年8月，针对罗斯班克项目的公众意见征集工作正式结束。此前，英国法院裁定该项目此前的审批决定违法。爱丁堡高等民事法院判定，前保守党政府批准该项目时，并未充分评估其下游碳排放影响。
A public consultation on the Rosebank project concluded in August 2026, following a landmark legal challenge that found the previous approval of the development unlawful. The Court of Session in Edinburgh ruled that the previous Conservative government had failed to fully consider the project’s downstream emissions when approving the development.
据估算，罗斯班克油田蕴藏的石油资源超过4.8亿桶，是英国目前尚未开发的最大油气田。该项目由挪威国有能源企业埃奎诺尔与伊萨卡能源公司合资开发。
Rosebank, estimated to contain more than 480 million barrels of oil, is the UK’s largest undeveloped oil and gas field. The project is primarily owned by Norwegian state-backed energy company Equinor and Ithaca Energy through a joint venture.
以“#阻止罗斯班克”为代表的反对方认为，开发该油田将延长英国对化石燃料的依赖，阻碍全球气候治理目标的实现。而支持者则主张，在能源转型过程中，国内油气生产有助于保障国家能源安全。
Opponents, including the #StopRosebank campaign, argue that developing the field would prolong the UK’s dependence on fossil fuels and undermine international climate targets. Supporters of the project, meanwhile, have argued that domestic oil and gas production is necessary to safeguard the country’s energy security during the transition to cleaner energy sources.
目前，英国政府正在审议是否批准罗斯班克及杰克多油气项目。这两个项目最初均由前保守党政府批准。尽管工党在2024年竞选纲领中承诺禁止在北海开展新钻探作业，但首相安迪·伯纳姆表示，政府将采取务实态度来决策此类项目。
The UK government is considering whether to approve the Rosebank and Jackdaw oil and gas projects, which were initially approved by the previous Conservative administration. Although Labour pledged to ban new drilling in the North Sea in its 2024 election manifesto, Prime Minister Andy Burnham has vowed to take a “pragmatic” approach to decisions on new developments.
