Support for oil and gas
Support for oil and gas, includes exploration, test drilling and decommissioning. This activity is the largest contributor to marine economy turnover and GVA. But, oil and gas price changes tend to impact on this activity. Scottish Annual Business Statistics is the source of the support for oil and gas data. Economic information on oil and gas extraction is not included in this report. See Annex for more information.
In 2020, support for oil and gas generated £1,692 million GVA, 1.21% of the Scottish economy GVA and 43% of the marine economy GVA. Support for oil and gas employed 15,000 people, 0.57% of Scottish employment and 22% of marine economy employment.
