Effects of oil and gas platform decommissioning on Moray Firth porpoises

New research from the University of Aberdeen has shed light on what effect decommissioning could have on local marine mammals.

An increasing number of offshore Oil and Gas, and wind energy structures will be decommissioned in the next decades as they reach the end of their production life.

The removal of man-made marine structures involves various activities that have the potential to impact marine mammals by increasing underwater noise levels.
