"Senior figures in the North Sea industry expect the fields to be given the go-ahead within the coming weeks, and claim they could begin producing fossil fuels by the end of the year. This outcome would be likely to provoke an outcry from green groups which have campaigned against the fields for years.

One industry source suggested that the go-ahead may come after the upcoming local elections in May, to avoid creating a dividing line between Labour and the Green party which has become increasingly popular among leftwing voters."
