§ Mr. AmosTo ask the Secretary of State for Energy what are the Government's latest forecasts of levels of United Kingdom petroleum production.
§ Mr. ParkinsonThe latest forecasts for United Kingdom petroleum production in the years 1989 to 1993 are as follows:
million tonnes 1989 95–115 1990 100–120 1991 90–120 1992 85–115 1993 80–120 As in previous years, the forecasts are presented in the form of a range of outcomes for each year. These take into account the many uncertainties involved. The figures comprise stabilised crude oil, natural gas liguids (NGLs) and condensates. NGL and condensate production is expected to contribute between 6 and 12 million tonnes annually to the figures.
