HC Deb 19 May 1980 vol 985 c22W
12. Mr. Greville Janner

asked the Secretary of State for Energy when he now expects the United Kingdom to be a net exporter of oil.

Mr. Gray

A rate of oil production roughly equivalent to net self-sufficiency should be attained towards the end of the year. The United Kingdom may then become a potential net exporter of oil.
