DoI grants seven-week extension to 'finalise outstanding matters'
A seven week extension has been granted by the Department of Infrastructure to finalise outstanding matters relating to a licence variation request from the company behind plans to extract gas from Manx waters.
Crogga Limited is working with the DOI to cover what are described as a 'small number' of remaining issues in relation to varying the company's Seaward Production Innovative Licence.
It currently requires Crogga to undertake a work programme as part of Phase B, which includes a 3D seismic survey, before to moving to the exploratory drilling in Phase C.
The variation request would allow drilling on the basis of a 2D survey.
