Greenpeace and Uplift jointly brought judicial reviews to stop the development of Rosebank oil field and the Jackdaw gas field.

They say the impact of emissions caused by burning extracted oil and gas was “unlawfully ignored” by regulators.

If successful, operators would have to resubmit environmental assessments for approval before drilling can begin.

The UK government said in August that it would not fight any cases over Rosebank and JackDaw .
