DEVELOPERS of the controversial Cambo oil and gas project near Shetland announced today that it has paused the project.

Siccar Point said it was going to evaluate the next steps for the project in the North Sea after Shell pulled out last week. 

The energy company’s chief executive Jonathan Roger said his company was in a position where the Cambo project cannot progress on the originally planned timescale.
