  • EVOL: Unmanaged decline, wind gamble, and well Kent M&A
    Sep 19 2025
    We discuss the state of UK oil and gas as energy policy has been accused of causing an 'unmanaged decline', before chatting with EnBW and Exceed about renewables investment and mergers and acquisitions. This week features Energy Voice's Ryan Duff, Mathew Perry, and Michael Behr with E-FWD editor Ed Reed making a comeback. Up first, Ed talks about the disconnect between Aberdeen and London as Westwood rolled up to the UK capital to warn of an unmanaged decline in oil and gas production and how that could hit UK finances. Decommissioning, tax, and Aberdeen taxi drivers are all discussed in the opening segment of this week's show. Next, Michael has been chatting with Damien Zachlod, managing director at EnBW UK. Three years ago, his company made a £10 billion investment pledge in the UK offshore wind, now we ask if that is still a safe bet in 2025. Finally, Mat caught up with Ian Mills, managing director of Exceed, about his firm's recent acquisition by Kent. The first segment of this programme may pique Ian's interests as he looks to explore the opportunities presented by the fast-growing offshore decommissioning market following his firm's takeover.

  • EFWD Offshore Europe Special
    Sep 12 2025
    What does the energy industry want? And what does it need? E-FWD members at the recent Offshore Europe show took time out from conferencing to share some thoughts in the studio. The government’s plans rest on the energy industry doing its part, to deliver Clean Power 2030 in the first instance, and in the longer term net zero. But there’s a lack of clarity on too many fronts - and workers are on the front lines. To hear more about how the industry sees the future, listen to this special E-FWD episode of Energy Voice Out Loud. Head to our YouTube channel to watch all of the interviews in full. https://www.youtube.com/@E-FWD_EnergyTransition

  • EVOL: What's next for Neo? Ineos refines spending, Reform's renewable ruse
    Sep 12 2025

    This week, we unpack rumours for Offshore Europe, discuss Ineos' global outlook, and recount the reform party conference. Joining the discussion is Energy Voice's Ryan Duff, Erikka Askeland and Floyd March.

    First up, Ryan discusses rumours that TotalEnergies may be looking to sell its UK assets to the newly formed Neo Next. It is no secret that the French supermajor has its gripes with the UK market and the North Sea's latest merger is hungry for expansion.

    Next, Erikka takes a closer look at Ineos Energy's claim that the UK is “one of the most unstable fiscal regimes in the world”. This came after the firm's chairman Brian Gilvary said that he would be rerouting UK investment to the US following a $3 billion in an American deal.

    Finally, Floyd was our man on the ground at the Reform Party conference, and he has heard some conspiracy theories. Can electric cars be controlled by the government? Is CO2 really not a pollutant? And can Floyd sleep after hearing Andrea Jenkyns sing? Find out the latest in the final part of this week's show.
