Britain's largest oil field could be producing millions of barrels a day by the autumn if Ed Miliband gives a green light to its plans, according to its owner.
The Energy Secretary must grant his approval for production to begin at the Rosebank site, which is off the coast of the Shetland Islands and is the North Sea's largest undeveloped site.
The project's owner, Ithaca Energy, said on Wednesday it is 'entering the final stages of development towards first production' - with the site forecast to generate up to 500million barrels of oil and gas.
