UKOOA Sustainability Strategy 2002 - First Report
1. Economic Sustainability
1.4 Stimulating business activity
  Commitment No. 17 - Licence trading event (farm-ins)

"On the back of LIFT and with the support of DTI and PILOT, we have launched a mini virtual licence round in order to stimulate interest and increase activity on the UKCS. This LIFT-inspired Farm-in Event (LIFE) streamlines access for a new entrants and start-ups and allows partner re-alignment. Focusing attention on exploration should allow identification of cost effective, multi-well programmes and clusters with prospects."

Progress to date : achievements and difficulties encountered

This was tried, but did not prove worthwhile and, therefore, is no longer active. Operators found that the anticipated benefits could not be realised in practice.
