The final report by the project delivery partners – OEUK, Decarb Scotland (formerly NECCUS) and ORE Catapult – has now been published, setting out perspectives from these three sectors on actions that could be taken to help effectively plan for and manage overlaps between them. Project Anemone brought together developers, regulators, seabed managers and industry organisations from across the three sectors in a series of interviews and focused workshops. Discussions focused on how decisions across project lifecycles are taken in practice, rather than on technical design or new regulation, emphasising that many colocation challenges stem from timing, coordination and limited early visibility of potential overlaps.

The first established a shared understanding of the regulatory landscape and the operational issues associated with colocation. The second moved into detailed, operator/developer-led discussion on how colocation can be better managed across OSW, CS and O&G. Together, the two stages produced the evidence base from which the solutions, good practice developments and complementary work presented in this report were drawn. Regulator and Stakeholder Engagement: The first stage engaged regulators, public bodies, seabed managers and trade organisations through structured interviews, alongside desk-based research into the regulatory and consenting regimes for each sector. This work produced a detailed picture of the development pathways for OSW, CS and O&G, including the distinct roles, timelines and interactions of the bodies involved at each stage. Developer and Operator Engagement: The second stage built on this evidence base through pre-workshop surveys, three sector-specific workshops and a combined cross-sector workshop with developers and operators from all three industries. The surveys were used to shape the agendas around the issues developers considered most important. The workshops then explored operational, regulatory, environmental, commercial and technical requirements in more detail, with a particular focus on regulatory clarity, the alignment of licensing and leasing processes, technical and operational interfaces, early engagement, and data sharing and agreement structures.
