Innovators across the energy sector often face years of delay before their technologies reach operational scale, especially in complex areas like offshore methane measurement. The Net Zero Technology Centre (NZTC) is tackling this challenge head-on through a joint innovation programme in the North Sea, bringing together operators and technology developers to conduct offshore trials. By creating neutral ground for shared testing and learning, NZTC is fast-tracking the validation of emerging and existing measurement technologies, with the goal of building a consistent, repeatable, and scalable framework for industry-wide adoption.
