The new entity will integrate critical infrastructure and the technical and operational expertise of two of the most experienced players in the region. <\/p>\n\n<p>The city of Aberdeen acts as the historical and operational hub of the UK&#8217;s offshore energy <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/news\/uk-subsidies-for-offshore-wind-energy\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"109391\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">British offshore energy<\/a><\/strong>. In fact, the name &#8220;Adura&#8221; reflects that connection: &#8220;A&#8221; for Aberdeen and &#8220;dura&#8221; for the durability and strength associated with its solid granite. <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Equinor <\/strong>will integrate Mariner, Rosebank and Buzzard. <strong>Shell<\/strong> will contribute facilities such as Penguins, Shearwater, Nelson and Jackdaw, among others. The combination seeks to consolidate efficiency and strengthen domestic supply.  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Adura <\/strong>is introduced as a strategic player that will contribute to secure supply through local resources, while maintaining compatibility with energy transition policies. It is important to highlight that neither <em>Shell <\/em>nor <em>Equinor <\/em>will include their wind, carbon capture or hydrogen assets in Adura, keeping them as separate lines. <\/p>\n\n<p>Pending <strong>regulatory approvals<\/strong>, Adura is expected to officially commence operations later this year. Ownership will be split equally: 50% to Equinor and 50% to Shell. <\/p>\n\n<p id=\"block-7452d964-8e0e-434c-8722-e283cd8a8d98\"><strong>Follow us on social networks and don&#8217;t miss any of our publications!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p id=\"block-e2855ed1-40c2-45d5-8f10-42fa8b26dae2\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@inspenet\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">YouTube<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/company\/inspenetnetwork\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LinkedIn<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/inspenetnetwork\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/inspenet\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Instagram<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Inspenetnetwork\" rel=\"nofollow\">X (Twitter)<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@inspenet?_t=8qqIL6dRGNR&amp;_r=1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">TikTok<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p id=\"block-a90af035-7ee7-4f00-80b9-6c97f3d833b3\"><strong>Source and photo: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.equinor.com\/news\/20250626-introducing-adura\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Equinor<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The alliance between Equinor and Shell creates a new Aberdeen-based energy company that promises to boost offshore North Sea production.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8404,"featured_media":271823,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categoria_noticias":[13026,13036],"etiqueta_noticias":[],"class_list":["post-271923","noticias","type-noticias","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","categoria_noticias-energy","categoria_noticias-oil-and-gas"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/271923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/noticias"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8404"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=271923"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/noticias\/271923\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/271823"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=271923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"categoria_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categoria_noticias?post=271923"},{"taxonomy":"etiqueta_noticias","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/inspenet.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/etiqueta_noticias?post=271923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
