Notes
1.
Exploration Licences last for three years with an option of a single three-year extension. The column headed ‘Expiry
Date’ shows the renewal date if the licence is still in, or if the licence was allowed to expire at the end of, its first
three-year term. If the licence has been extended, the revised expiry date appears in the column headed ‘Expiry
date after renewal’
2.
Exploration licences from E410 onwards incorporated those Model Clauses that were set out in the Offshore Gas
Storage and Unloading (Licensing) Regulations 2009 (2813/2009).
