Oil and gas in Denmark
Oil and gas have been produced from the Danish part of the North Sea since 1972, when the Dan field started production. Denmark has thus been an oil and gas-producing nation for almost half a century.
The Danish production of oil and gas benefits Danish society in several ways. For example, it generates revenue for the state, creates jobs and helps assure a reliable supply of energy.
Carbon storage in Denmark
There is significant potential for the storage of CO2 below ground in Denmark. For example, depleted oil and gas fields could be ideally suited for the purpose.
Utilisation of the Danish underground will be a key tool in achieving our climate goals.
